In 1892 Henry Altemus published two formats of its non series book-A Child’s History of England by Charles Dickens.
The cloth book was bound in extra fine English cloth and has been seen in four different colors. The orange book below is just now added to the database. It was priced at $3.00.
A presentation edition published in 1892 and 1893 in Persian levant Morocco priced at $5.00 has not been seen.
In 1895 a full cloth version seen below in red was first published.
All the formats have the 1892 copyright.

1892- Fine English Cloth

1895 Full Cloth Version

This title (Folly in Fairyland by Carolyn Wells) appeared in two different series. First in 1901 in the Folly Series (http://henryaltemus.com/series/series89.htm).
This book has illustrated end papers and all the pictures are on glossy paper.

Later this title appeared in two formats in the Little Men and Women Series ( http://henryaltemus.com/series/series125.htm). The difference in the two formats is the cover color (beige versus yellow) and the letter coloring on the spine (red versus yellow). It is unclear which version is the earlier.
    

This ten book series has six formats. (See: http://henryaltemus.com/series/series45.htm). In Format 4, on the right half of the cover there are four possible idyllic scenes within a rectangle. The book, The First Christmas, displayed below to the far left, is newly added to the data base and shows the fourth possible scene. The four idyllic scenes are also found in the Children of the Bible Series (http://henryaltemus.com/series/series63.htm) Format 3a.

The other three pictures are also shown below.
      

Here is a 19th century blank book published by Altemus & Co. This is only the second one that I have seen.

As is also noted in the previous blank book shown, inside the front cover is a label indicating Altemus & Co. with catalogue number and volume identifiers.

This book dates from the 1880’s. Altemus was at the 26 South Fourth Street address at that time. It appears that the 26 S. Fourth Street address was used mainly for ledgers and blank books while the Market Street and later the Cherry Street addresses were publishing Photographic Albums and Bibles.

I want to thank Susan Caughlan from the Worchester Historical Society for providing these pictures.

In 1899 the Vademecum Series (http://henryaltemus.com/series/series180.htm) had a distinctive floral decorative cover pattern.

This book cover is the eighth different color cover seen. It is unknown how many different covers exist.
