These books contain stories/pictures from previously published
Chatterboxes.
In parentheses is noted the Chatterboxes that the content of this new
book came from.
Many illustrations including a number by Harrison Weir.
All were reprinted by Dana Estes & Co. It appears that that by
1900
(maybe even in 1898) Dana Estes & Co. covers have different
pictures than the Estes and Lauriat covers. The books are also of
different dimensions. In 1916 Estes reprinted several of these titles
with new content and new covers.
Boards with illuminated covers. 8" x 14". (Estes and Lauriat)
