A propos de cet article

Third in the series, copyright 1910, and bearing a period gift inscription ("to Vera from Maura") dated Oct. 14th, 1910 in pencil to the blank FFE. The quad-design front board in black and orange is also in the first (1910) style -- the 106 little circles that form the oval around the title & author name are blank (same color as the tan boards), not "colored in." Only the five titles of the TS "starter set" showing to copyright page (though of course that persisted for years), but that page also states "Other volumes in preparation . . . Price, per volume, 40 cents postpaid." Glossy frontispiece by Mencl. No problems with hinges, book will close its own text block, so we'll grade it "very good" despite some ink doodles to FFE and the fact the boards themselves are moderately soiled and have suffered a few dings. NO dust jacket. 216 pp. followed by an ad for all five titles of the Tom Swift series (billed as "A NEW series, certain to attract attention") -- again at 40 Cents per Volume, and then three further pp. of ads, for two volumes of Howard Garis' "Dick Hamilton" series (through "Dick Hamilton's Cadet Days," 1910, but not "Dick Hamilton's Steam Yacht," 1911); for 14 Rover Boys (through "At College," 1910, but not "Down East," 1911), and for the three titles to date of Arthur Winfield's "Putnam Hall" series (through "Putnam Hall Champions," 1908, but not "Putnam Hall Rebellion," 1909. nor "Putnam Hall Encampment," 1910.) Howard R. Garis (1873-1962), of Uncle Wiggily fame and here writing under the Appleton house name of the Stratemeyer Syndicate, retains for comic relief here the unforgettable (and far from "politically correct") Eradicate Sampson and his stubborn mule, Boomerang. Reduced from $180. …
