Dixon (also used for The Hardy Boys) and published almost exclusively by Grosset & Dunlap. The novels were produced between 1927 and 1943. The principal author was John W. Duffield, who also contributed to the Don Sturdy and Bomba the Jungle Boy series. As "Richard H. Stone" he also launched a second Stratemeyer aviation series, the Slim Tyler Air stories (1930–1932). Duffield was a conscientious student of aeronautical technology, and long passages in the Ted Scott books can be traced to such sources as Aviation, the New York Times, Aero Digest, and Science. The series featured Ted Scott, a public aviation hero rather than merely an amateur aviator. In the first book in the series, Over the Ocean to Paris published in 1927, Ted Scott achieved fame for being the first pilot to fly over the Atlantic Ocean to Paris, a feat first accomplished in the real world by Charles Lindbergh in May of that year. 1929. ...

London: Macmillan & Co. Limited,, Date: 1903. Magnificent illustrations for Kipling's classic and considered by some to be the finest book illustrations ever published First edition, sole impression. A report on the publication in the New York Times for 5 December 1903 stated that "the edition is strictly limited to 500 copies for England and America". This portfolio is a magnificent presentation of the Detmold brothers' celebrated book illustrations. Reviewing the London exhibition of the original artwork, the Manchester Guardian commented that the Detmolds "are able to prevent their work from ever sinking to the level of mere illustration". The reviewer enthused that "the drawing of the Monkey People in the Cold Lairs who 'were not thinking of Mowgli's friends at all' is full of character, subtle observation, and invention. The figure of Bagheera in 'Mowgli and the Red Flower' has something of that beauty which hath terror in it. Baloo and Nag, Kaa and Akela the lone wolf are brought before our eyes in a singularly convincing and engaging form". Folio. Original green cloth chemise, front cover lettered and with illustration in gilt, containing title page, contents leaf and 16 loose prints. 16 coloured chromolithograph prints on thin card (sheet sizes: 330 x 430 mm.) tipped onto white board with grey window mounts (mount sizes: 393 x 545 mm.) with cover sheet to each illustration providing the title and a short extract from the book.
