Abraham Lincoln's Don'ts Edited by Wayne
Whipple 1918
This title was published by the Henry
Altemus Company in both cloth and ooze calf editions.
The cloth editions were priced at 50 cents (earliest), 60 cents and 75
cents (latest). The cloth books were published in different colors
without known priorities but the dust jackets do differ between
editions. Two jackets are shown below. I have not seen the jacket for
the 50 cents book as of yet. Note the book's price on the dust jacket
cover.
The ooze calf edition cost $1.25 and originally came within a labeled
box. The books are 5.75" x 3.75".
Generally, Altemus books published in 1922 or later state "Printed in
the United States of America" at the bottom of the copyright page.
Since none of these books note that blurb, they were all published
prior to 1922.
All of the editions/formats have the identical 96 pages of sayings that
are attributable to Abraham Lincoln.
