These books were all copyrighted in 1860. First editions have 1861
title page date.
Editions noted in 1861, 1862, 1863, 1864, 1866 (Walker, Fuller and
Company).
Later editions by Horace B. Fuller were published.
"Nobody's Child" is a composite of numerous short stories by a number
of authors. The first book printing of this group of stories was in
1860 by Walker, Wise and Co.
Sheldon & Co. reprinted this series beginning in 1867. This series
is listed in a Horace B. Fuller catalogue but as of yet I have not
seen an example of a book by that firm.
