Book Series
Sheldon & Co published reprints of these books a number of times.
Some early Sheldon volumes were undated and co-published with Gould and
Lincoln. This series was published by Sheldon beginning in 1860.
Dated copies have been seen in 1862, 1863, 1864, 1866, 1869 and 1871.
The formats are shown below. The books are all 6.25" x 4".
This book just below has the same cover format as the previous
Phillips, Sampson and Company books and this is clearly the earliest
Sheldon format. 1860-1861.
This book has a later format than the one above but still has the 115
Nassau Street address indicating a book that was published in 1862 or
earlier.
1871
