Q: I was given these a few years back when my grandfather passed away I was told they were his mothers, they seem to be in really good shape no tears in the bindings or pages what is it that I have here.

A: Your books are part of the Favorite Series (http://henryaltemus.com/series/series87.htm).

They are somewhat uncommon and a nice set of “Alice” books. They are reprints but since they are in nice shape they would be desirable to Alice collectors.

The title page of these books say “Young People’s Library”. Several Altemus series used the Young People’s Library interiors with different covers. This is an example of that.
