Q: I would like to confirm the date of publishing of this book. It’s a curious read. I’ve enjoyed the artwork that was used on these books pictures on your site but have not come across this one yet. Thank you for any information you can share.

A: Your book is part of the Vademecum Series. It was published in 1907. For several years Altemus incorporated European paintings onto their covers. I have seen 42 different as of this date. Your picture is the far left of picture #8 and the far right of #2. http://henryaltemus.com/vademecum.htm
