Yes, this is the dictionary I grew up with. Yes, my sister and I will fight over it. It had tons of cool pictures, and we used to read it all the time.
We used to have this black dictionary, I have no idea who published it, but it was copyright like 1946 or something, and still had things like "to-day" and cool old-fashioned spellings like that. It's probably one reason I still use a lot of British spelling--the old stuff is so much prettier and more fun.
