Edward Stratemeyer and the Stratemeyer Syndicate
New York: Twayne Publishers 1993. A gorgeous pristine copy in perfect condition. Brand New in a Brand New dust jacket. Bright shiny clean square and tight. Sharp corners. NO owner's name or bookplate. NO remainder mark. An examination of Stratemeyer's life and his fiction factory. Tells how his incredibly prolific "syndicate" created some of the best loved characters in American fiction. Identifies the stories behind and the true authors of many pseudonymous volumes in the Nancy Drew Bobbsey Twins and Hardy Boys series. Includes a bibliography that identifies the "author" publisher city and date and number of titles published in the various series. There is also a useful list of books and articles for further reading. First printing with complete number row 10 987654321 on the copyright page. Bound in the original blue cloth stamped in shiny gold. From the dust jacket: "Carolyn Keene Laura Lee Hope Franklin W. Dixon. these names are synonymous with some of the best-loved books of any American child: the Nancy Drew Bobbsey Twins and Hardy Boys series. Yet these names are as much fiction as are the books on which their names appear because those books -- and hundreds more -- are actually the brain child of one Edward Stratemeyer. Born in 1862 this man was one of the most prolific children's writers in the United States and he exploited the market to its fullest potential. After some publishing successes himself in the 1890s he developed the Stratemeyer Syndicate -- a type of production factory for series books. Stratemeyer would conceive ideas for series draft an outline for each book and hire writers to turn the outlines into full-length manuscripts all published under pennames. The syndicate kept between 19 and 31 series in progress until Stratemeyer's death in 1930 when his daughters assumed control publishing over 480 books. Not all the books were popular but by experimenting with different types of series using timely material and reflecting prevailing social values Edward Stratemeyer and the Syndicate offered readers vicarious wish fulfillment. Deidre Johnson has examined both the life and work of this astute businessman-writer getting to the bottom of his phenomenal achievement. In addition to defining the practices of the syndicate identifying some of its authors and examining the evolution of many of the series Johnson provides a comprehensiveness and succinctness in analyzing the viability and respectability of the Stratemeyers' considerable accomplishments." .

JOHNSON GW. G. W.
A Map of Niagara River 4 Miles above and 3 below the Falls
Buffalo: E.A. Maynard Book and Job Printer 1849. Folio 25½" X 19½" folded into 24mo marbled paper over boards case with printed label. Very good. Original folds visible but with almost no separations; bit of wear to some map edges; case hinge delicate but expertly archivally strengthened thus tight. A lovely bold copy of this exceptional pictorial lithographed map printed on unusually thin paper -- making this a rare survivor indeed. A large "Explanation of the Map" fills the entire lower left third offering both detailed text on twenty specific numbered features on the map and panoramic lithograph of the Falls while a small "Remarks" box at lower right offers details about the Falls. The map itself is dramatic and simple showing the landmarks streets and select buildings around the Falls itself. A boxed list of five hotels featured immediately below the map's title near the center suggests the mercantile nature of this map -- tourism. Printed label on front case board lists title as "Johnson's New Map of Niagara Falls" and includes a small steel-engraved vignette while the front pastedown is a full-length portrait of an Indian. Rear board bears 1909 engraved bookplate of "The Americana Library of Charles D. Marshall" 1100 books and maps of which were selected by the Buffalo Historical Society and appropriately bookplated by permission of this wealthy collector's niece Hazel Marshall Koerner supposedly following her uncle's wishes; but the gift was never made official by the estate and in the fall of 1913 the heirs demanded that the material be sent to a New York auction house where it was auctioned to the public on March 16-18 of 1914. Interestingly the David Rumsey Map Collection depicts a similar 1849 printing of this map but it shows "H.G. Johnson" rather than "G.W. Johnson" as the cartographer and the lower left corner of the Rumsey map does not show the "E.A. Maynard Book and Job Printer Republic Office Buffalo" which appears in fine print of this copy below the "Copyright Secured according to Act of Congress -- 1849" citation that appears on both maps. Other 1848 printings however cite G.W. Johnson and show the E.A. Maynard text line which suggests that the Rumsey copy is some other perhaps later reprint. E.A. Maynard Book and Job Printer unknown
