Clement & Packard, New York City

Christopher C. Clement and Joseph Packard established their firm in June, 1841. The new company succeeded Taylor (J. Orville Taylor) & Clement. There is no evidence of any publications produced by this firm after 1842. Clement died at the age of 31 in 1843.

There is evidence that this company published one series for juveniles. I have seen some miscellaneous chapbooks published by this firm but not in a known series.

Newcomb's Picture Stories, Scripture Series by Harvey Newcomb

This series was published by Clement & Packard in 1841. A Boston publisher, Henry D. Williams, also printed these titles in 1841 in an identical format. No priority has been established.
