The Lothrop Publishing Company published a number of series beginning in 1895 which consisted of oversized board covered books with numerous stories and illustrations. The volumes are connected by the series name which is noted at the bottom of the front cover. The cover illustration is different for each title. I have been unable to find any series’ book lists for these sets. Titles will be added as they are discovered. Of interest is that some of the titles have been seen in more than one series and some titles within a series have been seen with different cover illustrations.

Illuminated board covers. 10.5" x 8.25".
