Q: I have attached photos of the book “Thoughts of the Emperor published by Henry Altemus”. There are many of these around, however, I can’t seem to find another one with a cover like this one. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
A: Your book is part of the Beauxarts Series and was published in 1897. This is a very commonly found format.
Each of the years the Beauxarts Series was published, the cover format was changed. During 1897 this format was printed in a number of different colors. Some are shown below.
All of the titles in this series are reprints. This book only has nominal value.
