Q: I have a copy of Henry Altemus Productions – Treasure Island… has the typical dedication to S.L.O. and American gentleman – but the cover is quite different from your website. Do you have any idea of the age of this book?
A: Your book is part of the Vademecum Series and was published in 1897. All of the titles in this series are reprints.
During this year all of the cover basic decorative patterns are the same but many different color variations have been noted.
Some are shown below.
