Working and Winning Series

Published by Henry Hoyt
1. Working and Winning; or, The Deaf Boy's Triumph (Copyright 1862) by William M. Thayer

This series is noted in 1867 ads as being a five title series. The only volume that I can determine was in this series is noted above and it was published five years before the series was advertised.

Other information about this series is forthcoming (hopefully).

Below is a picture of the first edition of Working and Winning by Thayer. It is presumed (but not known definitively) , that the books of the series have a different format.

Of note however is that Tim, the Scissors Grinder by Madeline Leslie has been seen with this same cover format. The Tim book has an 1862 inscription. More volumes with this cover format or the discovery of an early 1860’s series with both of these titles will be needed before they are placed into a definitive series.
