Catalogue information
Adventures on land and at sea. Illustrated children's books translated from French. Only part 4 of this series is not by Mayne Reid. Dark blue linen bookbindings, or in lithographed covers. A total of 50 episodes were also published from April 1879 (18790429-Nieuwsblad voor den Boekhandel and 18790504-'Groene 'Amsterdammer). 21 cm. Price ƒ 1.50 - b. ƒ 1.75. Wood engravings after drawings by .. (see details). Sewn in beautiful color lithograph. This same series of 12 volumes was exploited by Bolle from 1885 onwards (18851016-Leidsch Dagblad) for NLG 1 and NLG 1.30. Bolle used new tires, which at first glance are identical to the previous ones, in the colors blue and yellow ocher. After these were used up, Bolle finally used an unsigned red standard binding with gold lettering (which we also find in books by other authors, for example Karl Müller) and a single green occasional binding. Only the first volume was published in a second edition, with Bolle title page. The last advertisement for the entire series dates from 18901201-Leeuwarder Ct, for part 12 it is 18971129-Leeuwarder Ct.
