Snow, Boyden, & Knight, Boston
This outfit was established by George A. Snow, George C. Boyden, and Dan'l F. Knight It was a wholesale dealer in books, ink and Stationery. It also did a bit of publishing.
One Cornhill 1865-1868
This firm succeeded F. A. Brown & Co. Brown ceased business in 1863. It is probable this company began at that time. By 1868 Wilde, Bowler & Co. was operating at One Cornhill
In 1870 Dan’l F. Knight partnered with Wm. A. Wilde, and Geo. A. Adams to form W. A. Wilde & Co. This firm was a wholesale book and stationery company also located at One Cornhill.
I am aware of two series that this firm published.
Only two books are known in each series and there may or may not be
others. The formats are uniform for both sets. Whether there are
different cover pictures for different titles is unknown.
