Q: I am interested in knowing more about one of my mom’s books (The Prince of the House of David). I cannot find a publishing date. There is no dust cover, nor are there any other books with it.

I have seen info on your site about similar books in the Beauxarts Series (Series 47), but I have not seen a cover like the one I have.
Any info would be greatly appreciated – especially the date it was published – if possible. Thank you for your time and how much you help people.

A: Your book is part of the Devotional Series.

This format was published between 1898 and 1924. The cover has been seen in several colors. It originally came within a labeled box. An example is shown.

The date of publication can be approximated by analyzing the ads in the back of the book.
