The
Boy’s and Girl’s Series of New Copyrights (Series 60)
1902 Advertising Flyer found
Within a Diplome L’Honneur Series book a one sheet advertising flyer
has been discovered. This series was only published in 1902 and both
books advertised on the flyer are also 1902 books.
As pictured below, on one side of the flyer is a picture of the
frontispiece from the book Gypsy the Talking Dog by Tudor Jenks. The
Jenks’ book was originally part of the two volume Jenks’ Talking Animal
Series (Series #111). Later, beginning in 1908, it was part of the
Little Men and Women Series (Series #125)
The other side of the flyer advertises Wings and Fetters by Florence
Morse Kingsley. This book was part of The Boy’s and Girl’s Series of
New Copyrights (Series #60) published in 1901-1902. Of interest is
that the picture seen on the flyer does not appear in the book. This
book has an illustration page which lists the four glossy pictures
found within. None match the flyer’s picture. A puzzle to be sure.
The flyer is 7.25” x 3.25”.
