Book
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. Title page states "illustrated," but we can find no illustrations save the two-color equestrian figures to front board and spine, the green-and-white pictorial endpapers (a Wright Flyer passes above young people engaged in recreational pursuits), and some modestly decorated B&W initial capitals at the chapter heads. Even stranger, title page attributes this work to Seward D. Lisle, while both spine and front board list the author as "Edward S. Ellis." (The two are anagrams -- presumably Lisle was one of the many pseudonyms of Edward Sylvester Ellis, 1840-1916.) In addition to penning the six known adventures of "Deerfoot" the Shawnee brave, Ellis wrote "The Life of Colonel David Crockett," in which Crockett delivers the speech usually called "Not Yours To Give," opposing the award of taxpayer funds to a Navy widow whose boarding house had burned down, on grounds that Congress has no Constitutional mandate to give charity. The account is said to have been inspired by Crockett's meeting with one Horatio Bunce, a man "much quoted in Libertarian circles," though for the entire episode and oration, according to far-left Wikipedia, "historical evidence is non-existent." Copyright here is to Henry T. Coates & Co.; this Winston edition is presumably a reprint. The front hinge has been re-glued. 352 pp. Reduced from $14.

First Edition
Presumed First Edition. An uncommon young adult's novel and number 1 in the Strange Adventure Series. This copy with Coates title page, and author listed as Seward D. Lisle. However the publisher listed at the spine is Winston and the rare illustrated dustjacket lists this title, Teddy and Towser by Edward S. Ellis and is a John C. Winston dustjacket. Presumably Lisle is an psydonym for Ellis and was originally published by Coates. The sheets from this edition were purchased and bound by Winston who added their own dustjacket. A scarce early Ellis title in any event. Near Fine with cover art bright, in illustrated dustjacket, Vermont shaped chip a few inches deep at lower spine end, else Very Good.
