Page & Company of Boston. Its editor and founder was J. Erskine Clarke who was inspired by his fervent dislike of the cheap adventure stories then known as "penny dreadfuls." Clarke collaborated with a woodcut artist and launched a half penny newspaper called Chatterbox aimed at older kids. It proved to be a rip-roaring success and led to the publication of bound volumes by year.In addition to numerous black and white illustrations this edition shows eightl full page color ones too. As for content, almost anything could turn up -- a nonfiction article about Japanese gardens, a short story entitled "Mother's Christmas Stocking," a poem called "A Little Girl In India." The emphasis was on short pieces that could be read quickly and a magazine that covered lots of different subjects.Book measures 7-1/2"x10" and has 316 pages, plus a page of ads for other books at back.
