Huckleberry Finn

TYPE 7, The first of the 1600 series. Beautiful artwork covers, unfortunately artist is unknown. A total of 21 titles, all coming with :49 after the number, this is the retail price, 49 cents. While this set was in production the company received too many complaints by their retail 5 & 10 etc, retailers, so you will find most of these later editions with :49 removed. I've seen many copies with 59c. stickers on them. Also their is no classic logo on the series, lastly #1619 Davy Crockett, had a limited production run, not found without :49. There are minor variations in this set. Like the Florian glossys, these didn't hold up all that well either, mainly spine peeling, is most common. This is # 1606 in black numbers, 1955, rubbing bottom left, abridged version ,otherwise nice book.
