THE BEADLE COLLECTION 
 
 THROUGH the generosity of Dr. Frank P. O'Brien of New York, who 
 has given this collection to the Library, it is possible to place on exhibi- 
 tion about fourteen hundred of those rare little books and magazines which, 
 beginning about the year 1859, were issued in America under the broad and gen- 
 eral title of "Dime Novels." These are separate publications from the house 
 of Beadle and Adams, of which Erastus Beadle, the Otsego printer, was the 
 originator and guiding spirit. The remaining 171 items in Dr. O'Brien's gift 
 are examples of those other novels which sprang into existence as a result of 
 the popularity with which the Beadle books were greeted from their first appear- 
 ance. For lack of space, they are not in the exhibition. The collection, as 
 shown in the Main Exhibition Room, constitutes an absorbingly interesting 
 assemblage of a pioneer literature which has now wholly vanished, but which, 
 for a generation, exercised a profound influence on the country's thought, 
 character, and habits of mind. 
 
 No less than thirty-one various "types" or "series" of books, pamphlets, 
 magazines, and periodicals are embraced in the Beadle exhibit. Of certain 
 types which were published but for a short time only, or which have become 
 most difficult to discover, only a few copies are shown. Other varieties, whose 
 regular appearance extended over a considerable period of years, are in some 
 few instances represented by hundreds of different titles. The publications 
 are of all sizes, from little 24mos to large folio sheets as big as a modern news- 
 paper. More than half of the different series were originally issued in illus- 
 trated covers or wrappers of dififerent colors, and they are thus shown. They 
 come in brown, blue, orange, tan, green, yellow, red, buff and in various com- 
 binations of those hues, and in plain black-and-white. Nearly all are shown in 
 the exhibition cases in a manner to reveal their outward appearance and the 
 dramatic or quaint illustrations with which they were embellished, but certain 
 of the books of each variety are opened for a proper display of the title-pages. 
 
 Although every one of the thirty-one types of Beadle books (and doubt- 
 less many of the individual items also) will awaken vivid memories in the 
 minds of elder visitors, the dominating influence of the exhibition — especially 
 to those historically inclined — will be the effect which it produces as a whole. 
 The collection is literally saturated with the pioneer spirit of America. It por- 
 trays the struggles, exploits, trials, dangers, feats, hardships, and daily lives

 of the American pioneers from the days of the Puritans to the death of Custer, 
 and breathes the spirit which, for two and a half centuries, shaped the con- 
 quest and development of the Continent north of the Rio Grande. It is a litera- 
 ture intensely nationalistic and patriotic in character; obviously designed to 
 stimulate adventure, self-reliance and achievement; to exalt the feats of the 
 pioneer men and women who settled the country; and to recite the conditions 
 under which those early figures lived and did their work. 
 
 It is in those obvious qualities that the cause of the immense vogue of 
 the Beadle books is to be found during their generation. It w^as in those attri- 
 butes, also, that their equally great popular influence lay, and no serious student 
 who seeks to understand the history of this country and many of its present 
 tendencies, can fail to obtain a better understanding of such matters by a study 
 of the collection now on view. It is a clinic in the subject of mass psycholog}^; 
 as valuable to the university professor for its significant historical revelations 
 as it is to the gray-haired man to whom it recalls memories of boyhood. 
 
 Erastus Beadle, who did so much to perpetuate and glorify in print the 
 deeds of the American pioneers, w^as born in the village of Pierstow^n, Otsego 
 County, New York, September 11, 1821. His later interest in the subject of 
 American pioneer life, and his devotion to the cause of recording its annals, 
 is no doubt traceable to his own ancestry and to the experiences of his youth. 
 The grandfather of Erastus was Benjamin Beadle, of Wethersfield, Connec- 
 ticut, who fought in the Revolution under General John Sullivan and General 
 George Clinton. Four generations of Benjamin Beadle's ancestors were born 
 in or identified with Salem, Massachusetts, w^here Samuel Beadle died about 
 1664. Descendants of Samuel fought in the French and Indian Wars. 
 
 Benjamin, the Revolutionary soldier, removed to New York in 1796. He 
 traveled by sail-boat from Connecticut to New^ York City; thence up the Hud- 
 son to Lansingburg; and by horses and wagons overland through the wilder- 
 ness to Otsego County, on Stewart's Patent, near the present Richfield Springs. 
 This pioneer was married three times, and was the father of twenty-three chil- 
 dren. The father of Erastus was named Flavel Beadle, and was a son of 
 Benjamin's second wife. Flavel Beadle was eight years of age during the 
 journey into the New York wilderness, and was there later married to Polly 
 Tuller, who had come from Massachusetts. 
 
 In 1833, when Erastus was tw-elve years old, he, in his turn, was to enjoy 
 his first extensive experience of wilderness journeying. He accompanied the 
 rest of the family on an overland migration to the town of Schoolcraft, in 
 Kalamazoo County, Michigan Territory, which pilgrimage occupied many 
 weeks. But the Far West of those days did not suit Flavel Beadle, and he 
 brought his family back to New York about two years later. 
 
 As a boy, Erastus Beadle worked on a farm, and as apprentice to a miller. 
 It was while he was a miller's apprentice that he laid the foundation of his

 future career as a printer. Need arose in the mill one day for some letters to 
 be used in labeling the bags of grain. Erastus cut the letters from blocks of 
 hardwood, just as the old block-letters had been made in the days before Gut- 
 enberg. He then left the mill, and, with an alphabet of his home-made wooden 
 type, he traveled about the region stamping bags in various mills and similarly 
 marking lap robes, wagons, and other things. On reaching Cooperstown he 
 came to the attention of Elihu Phinney, the pioneer printer of that town, who 
 offered him work. In Phinney's establishment Erastus learned to be a type- 
 setter, stereotyper, printer, and binder, and with these abilities as his only 
 capital he moved to the village of Buffalo in 1847. By 1852 he had a printing 
 shop of his own, and in that year he issued his first publication, entitled "The 
 Youth's Casket.." In 1856 he began to issue the excellent magazine called "The 
 Home Monthly" (shown in the exhibition), and two years later he removed 
 to New York City to test his great idea. 
 
 This plan was to issue "Dime" publications, and possibly had its immedi- 
 ate origin in the unusual success in Buffalo, of a "Dime Song Book" in which 
 he had assembled a number of the penny lyrics of the period. These had been 
 earlier issued in separate broadsides, by various publishers. 
 
 The New York issues of the song books also made an immediate hit, and 
 were swiftly followed by a number of the miscellaneous hand-books shown 
 in the present exhibition. Then, in the summer of 1860, came the first of the 
 original "Dime Novels" in their orange covers. Success was assured from 
 the start, and the publishing activities of Beadle and Company speedily grew 
 to vast proportions. 
 
 Many of the best writers of the period, who possessed intimate knowl- 
 edge of American pioneer life, were asked to put the conditions and events of 
 earlier generations into attractive form. Among those whose help was thus 
 enlisted were Judge Jared Hall, Francis Fuller Barritt, John Neal, Mayne 
 Reid, Mrs. Victor, Colonel A. J. H. Duganne, Edward S. Ellis, William 
 Eyster, Ann Stephens, Judge William Busteed, N. C. Iron, Herrick Johnstone, 
 James L. Bowen, Mary Denison, John Warner, Charles Dunning Clark, and 
 various others. 
 
 The little books they wrote were inspired by Erastus Beadle, and his 
 influence is seen in the fact that every phase of pioneer life, and every his- 
 toric event in which his own ancestors had taken part, is treated in the series 
 of Beadle books. The editorship of the house was entrusted to Orville J. 
 Victor, one of the most remarkable figures in the history of American litera- -J^ 
 ture. For thirty years, Victor personally studied, passed upon, and edited 
 the thousands of publications of the House of Beadle. He insisted, first of all, 
 that the narratives must be true and accurate portrayals, in spirit, of the 
 pioneer times and people with which they dealt. They had to reveal wilder- 
 ness life and struggle as it was, and depict the conditions amid which the 
 
6 THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY 
 
 pioneers did their work. These tales were not history in the hteral or text- 
 book sense, since they often incorporated incidents for which there was no 
 authentic or contemporary proof. But such material, if used, had to be con- 
 sistent with known conditions of the period portrayed. 
 
 Doubtless it was the mass-realization of these facts, on the part of the 
 public, that brought about such recognition of the so-called "Dime Novels." 
 The people were absorbingly interested in the earlier life of the pioneers, and 
 when it was presented to them in the form inspired by Beadle and directed by 
 \'ictor, they — as the slang phrase now goes — "ate it up." "Here at last" — 
 they doubtless intuitively felt — "is the real thing, not set before us as a dull 
 task to memorize, but as a vital picture to be studied and enjoyed, and from 
 V which we may learn." 
 
 Then came the Civil War, and the soldiers literally absorbed the con- 
 venient little books by the million. The volumes were exchanged, passed from 
 hand to hand, read to tatters, and then thrown away. Throughout the thirty 
 or more years in which the Beadle books held ascendancy they were so cheap, 
 and so common, that they w^ere almost never saved. In that respect they suf- 
 fered the fate of all common things. It is almost always the case that the com- 
 monest objects of one generation become the rarest Objects of two generations 
 afterward. Their very commonness is the quality that keeps them from being 
 treasured by their original possessors. Hence they disappear. Beadle books, 
 in their day, were as countless as the bison of the plains or the passenger pigeon 
 of the air. Yet to-day only a few hundred bison are alive, and are carefully 
 protected, while not one passenger pigeon is known to exist. 
 '^ After the Civil War — to a much greater extent than before that struggle 
 
 — Beadle and Victor turned their attention to the Far West and enlisted the 
 aid of numerous western explorers, Indian fighters and plainsmen in portray- 
 ing that part of the country. Erastus Beadle, himself, made a trip across the 
 plains in order to study, at first hand, the life in those regions. Among those 
 whose knowledge of the West was thus embodied in the Beadle books were 
 Dr. Frank Powell, Captain "Bruin" Adams, Buffalo Bill, Major Sam Hall 
 (known as Buckskin Sam), Major St. Vrain, Joseph Badger, Prentiss Ingra- 
 ham. Captain Alfred Taylor, T. C. Harbaugh, Lieutenant Hazeltine, Captain 
 Monstery, Captain Frederick Whittaker, Lieutenant J. H. Randolph, Major 
 Henry B. Stoddard, Lieutenant Alfred Thorne, Captain Jack Crawford (the 
 Poet Scout), Ensign Charles Dudley Warren, Dr. Carver, Henry Inman, 
 Albert D. Richardson, Dr. J. H. Robinson, Lieutenant James Magoon, Profes- 
 sor William R. Eyster, Oil Coomes, Captain T. B. Shields, J. B. Omohundro 
 (who was "Texas Jack"), and dozens of others whose years of personal knowl- 
 edge and actual adventure were incorporated in their writings. 
 
 For a long time a considerable part of the reading public in the East 
 looked upon these tales from the Far West as unadulterated fiction, entirely 
 
THE BEADLE COLLECTION 7 
 
 harmful in its effect. Uncounted armies of boys who lived between the Mis- 
 sissippi and the Atlantic were taken to the woodsheds by their fathers, and 
 there subjected to severe physical and mental anguish as a result of the parental 
 discovery that they were reading such "impossible trash." But the intuition 
 of the boys was a truer guide* — in this matter at least — than the opinions of 
 those parents who did not read the books, and it has finally come to be realized 
 that the pictures of pioneer life in the Far West, as presented by the Beadle 
 books, are substantially accurate portrayals of the strange era and characters 
 therein depicted. As a matter of fact, the men and women who wrote those 
 narratives for the House of Beadle succeeded much better in their task than 
 hearsay chroniclers who also undertook it. The Beadle books present a more 
 accurate and vivid picture of the appearance, manner, speech, habits and 
 methods of the pioneer western characters than do the more formal historians. 
 The reason for that circumstance lies in the fact that writers chosen by Beadle 
 and Victor were ones w'ho had lived the life of which they told, and were 
 familiar with its fundamental, day-by-day qualities. That advantage enabled 
 them to get closer to real conditions than the distant commentators and hearsay 
 chroniclers whose methods of narration were in a considerable degree ham- 
 pered by existing conventionalities of historical writing, whose viewpoint of 
 western life had not been shaped by long or intimate contact with it. Much 
 of the biographical material relating to famous western characters, which is 
 embodied in various Beadle books, is not to be found elsewhere. And, since 
 the lives of the men thus treated are an integral and essential part of western 
 history, the importance now placed on such biographical and regional material 
 is easily seen. 
 
 In the years when the little Beadle volumes were common, and at the 
 height of their popularity, they were often denounced from the pulpit as 
 pernicious and evil in their influence upon the men and boys who read them 
 so avidly. But such condemnation was due to ignorance of their character. 
 Of late years that judgment has been radically reversed. The present esteem 
 in which they are held was in part stated by Charles Harvey, in an article on 
 the subject published by him in the Atlantic Monthly for July, 1907. 
 Mr. Harvey said: 
 
 "Ethically they were uplifting. The hard drinkers, and the grotesquely 
 profane and picturesquely depraved persons who take leading roles in many 
 of the dime novels of recent times were inexorably shut out from their pro- 
 genitors of Beadle's days. 
 
 "These tales incited a love of reading among the youth of the country. . . 
 Many of the boys and girls who encountered Pontiac, Boone, the renegade 
 
8 THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY 
 
 Girty, Mad Anthony, Kenton, and Black Hawk in their pages were incited 
 to find out something more about those characters and their times, and thus 
 were introduced to much of the nation's story and geography. ManHness and 
 womanhness among the readers were cultivated by these Httle books, not by 
 homilies, but by example. It can be truthfully said that the taste and tone of 
 the life of the generation which grew up with these tales were improved by 
 them. No age limit was set up among Beadle's readers. Lincoln w^as one 
 of them." 
 
 When Lincoln sent Henry Ward Beecher to England as a Special Com- 
 missioner, in an effort to wan support for the Union from the English Cabinet, 
 it was Victor, editor of the House of Beadle, whose "Address to the English 
 People" gave material aid to the President's representative. After Beecher had 
 returned he discussed these things with Victor, and said to him: "Your little 
 book and Mrs. Victor's novel [referring to 'Maum Guinea'] were a telling 
 series of shots in the right spot." 
 
 It was Victor, also, who wrote the life of Lincoln included in the "Lives 
 of Great Americans" series, and who, in his hastily composed memorial preface 
 to that volume, summarized the dead President in a manner not excelled by 
 anv other writer of the period. Victor therein said: "Few men realized the 
 magnitude of his task — it was too mighty for comprehension; few men 
 were dispassionate enough to judge justly; few were wise enough to judge 
 understandingly." 
 
 Such w^as the man who, under the guidance of Erastus Beadle, chose and 
 edited the pioneer literature which, for a generation, molded the thought and 
 ambitions of America's youth. That literature itself has almost disappeared, 
 but its effects on the national life are every w^here still present. 
 
 In the exhibition are shown about sixty-eight different examples of the 
 famous "original yellow back" Dime Novels, which began to appear in 1860. 
 No less than seventeen of the first twenty-five titles constituting this series are 
 embraced in the collection. Number 8 is a first edition copy of Edward Ellis' 
 celebrated "Seth Jones," a story of the New York Wilderness in 1785. More 
 than 450,000 copies of this book had been sold in America before 1865, and 
 it had been translated into seven foreign languages. Number 9, "The Slave 
 Sculptor," illustrates the little known bibliographical fact that Beadle and 
 Company issued English editions of many of these books from 44 Paternoster 
 Row, London. The English editions were printed from the American stereo- 
 type plates, with specially prepared title-pages. It was during the issuance of 
 the first few titles of the original Dime Novels that various experiments were 
 made by the publishers in the form and color of these books. Numbers 10, 11

 and 12 illustrate such changes. But the appearance adopted in Number 11 
 was finally chosen, and thenceforth was adhered to during the printing of over 
 300 books in the yellow-back series. Among other titles included in this type 
 is a copy of Mrs. Victor's "Maum Guinea," which was preferred by President 
 Lincoln, as a portrayal of slavery, over Mrs. Stowe's "Uncle Tom's Cabin." 
 Still other celebrated issues among the yellow-backs shown are Ellis' "Rifle- 
 men of the ]\Iiami," Frances Barritt's "The Land Claim," and Ann Stephen's 
 "Story of the Oregon Trail." 
 
 The second series of Beadle books portraying pioneer conditions and-^ 
 events was called the "Pocket Novels," which began to appear about 1869 
 or 1870. These were of the same 12mo size as their predecessors, but the 
 previous uniformity of coloring was abandoned for a more brilliant appear- 
 ance and each cover was given a multi-colored illustration on a solid background 
 of red, green, blue or brown. Some sixty-four titles of this series are dis- 
 played, and almost without exception they deal with historical pioneer con- 
 ditions, events and personages. Among these books the visitor will find "Mad 
 Anthony's Scouts," by Rodman; Whittaker's "Boone the Hunter" and "Dick 
 Darling" (the pony expressman) ; "Billy Bowlegs"; and "The Sons of Liberty" 
 and "Mohawk Nat," by the historian Charles Dunning Clark, who wrote for 
 Beadle under the pen name of W. J. Hamilton. Clark wrote no less than seven- 
 teen of the "Pocket Novels" books, nearly all of them dealing with the periods 
 and circumstances of the French-Indian wars in New York, Virginia and 
 Pennsylvania, or with the scenes of the Revolution, phases of national his- 
 tory upon which Clark was a specialist. Many of the "Pocket" series also dealt 
 with the settlement of the Ohio and Mississippi Valleys from 1780 to 1815, 
 and with the Far West from 1849 to 1869. This "Pocket" series is biblio- 
 graphically known as Type B of the Beadle publications, while the original 
 yellow-backed books belong to Type A. 
 
 The next two groups — Types D and E — have a common title, the 
 "Boy's Library of Sport, Story and Adventure," and are distinguished from 
 one another by the larger size and earlier issuance of the Type D items. 
 They are imperial octavo in size, whereas the Type E publications are ordinary 
 octavos. Both are uncolored, and have their title-pages entirely occupied with 
 bold black-and-white illustrations. The Type D books are somewhat different 
 in various qualities from their predecessors, and were obviously designed to 
 create an interest in foreign countries, peoples and customs as well as in Ameri- 
 can adventure. A typical item of this class is Harbaugh's "Snow Shoe Tom, 
 or New York Boys in the Wilderness," wherein the veteran author (who is 
 still living in Ohio) instructs his readers regarding camp and wilderness life in 
 Maine, in moose-hunting, fishing, trapping, the making of snow-shoes, and self- 
 reliance in the woods. The Type E books are concerned almost wholly with 
 life in the Far West, and with the lives and adventures of celebrated plainsmen. 
 
10 THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY 
 
 Among these titles are Aiken's story of the exploits of "Kit Carson"; Joseph 
 Badger's Autobiography (written under the pen name of Post); and Ingra- 
 ham's biography of the celebrated scout called Texas Jack, whose real name 
 was J. B. Omohundro. 
 
 A series of little 12mo paper books having about 100 pages each, with 
 colored illustrations on orange-red covers, come next in the exhibition. These 
 are of the "New Dime Novels" series, known in bibliographical realms as 
 Type F. There are no less than 114 of them, all in remarkable condition con- 
 sidering that some were copyrighted as early as 1866, and none are less than 
 forty years old. These books, like the original dime publications and the Pocket 
 series, are devoted to the early Indian wars, to various pioneer conditions and 
 events, to the settlement of the Mississippi Valley and to the Far West. Among 
 the titles displayed in this section are "Eph Peters, the Scout of the Mohawk 
 Valley," by Clark; "Indian Jim," a story of the Minnesota Massacres of 1862, 
 by Ellis; "W'ingenund," by Murray; "The Grizzly -Hunters," by Captain Whit- 
 taker; a Sioux narrative under the title of "Old Zip," by Bruin Adams; John 
 Neal's description of the Maine "Moosehunter"; and Whittaker's story of 
 "The Death's Head Rangers" of Texas. 
 
 Next among the various varieties of publications are the "American 
 Tales." These (the Type G books) have become particularly rare, and are 
 represented by but five examples. They are octavos with brown pictorial 
 covers. One of these, entitled "The Blue Brotherhood, or the Young Patroon's 
 Inheritance," deals with the events of the Mohawk Valley during the Revolu- 
 tion, and with the manor house of Abram Van Kempen, which was then known 
 as "Van Kempen's Castle." 
 
 Most spectacular and attractive of all, in their outward appearance, are 
 the books of the Type H series. These are likewise octavos, published in 1870 
 and the years immediately following, and they have dramatically drawn covers 
 published in colors. For a long time it was not known by modern bibliogra- 
 phers that these tales were published by Beadle, since, almost without excep- 
 tion, they bear an imprint reading "Frank Starr and Company, Publishers, 
 41 Piatt Street." Investigation, however, at length disclosed that Frank Starr 
 was a foreman in Beadle's employ, and that 41 Piatt Street was a rear entrance 
 to the Beadle establishment. And finally a copy of "The Texan Spy" of this 
 series was discovered, with the Beadle imprint on the title-page, and also a 
 Beadle copyright, although the "Frank Starr" attribution appears on the front 
 cover. The title-page of "The Texan Spy," which ultimately settled the prob- 
 lem, is shown in the exhibition. Although this series is among the most rare, 
 no less than thirty-nine examples are in the collection. They embrace histori- 
 cal tales dealing with Kit Carson, the Gulf Pirates, the Black Hawk War, 
 Pioneer Life in Texas, the New York Wilderness, the Seminole War, Early 
 California, the Trappers of the West, the Civil War, Early Ohio, Marion's 
 
THE BEADLE COLLECTION H 
 
 Rangers, the Settlement of the Susquehanna Region, and many other equally 
 absorbing phases of American pioneer conditions. 
 
 Following comes an assemblage of very different outward aspect. These 
 are 105 specimens of the "Pocket Library," which are collectively known as 
 Type J. They are uniform, small octavo pamphlets of thirty-two pages each, 
 with the front covers occupied by illustrations in black-and-white. The very 
 first issue of this series is shown. It is Edward Wheeler's story of "Deadwood 
 Dick, the Prince of the Road." Among the more important items in this 
 division of the collection are Omohundro's story of the Scout New Wylde, 
 Captain J. F. C. Adams' "Oregon Sol," the same famous pioneer's tale of "Nick 
 WhifHe's Pet," Mayne Reid's "The Yellow Chief," Prentiss Ingraham's "Buf- 
 falo Bill's Bet," and Ingraham's "Pony Express Rider." The dominant motif 
 of this series is far western adventure, but there are also numerous stories por- 
 traying life in New York City. 
 
 The succeeding group (belonging to Type K) reveals another striking 
 reversal of form and outward appearance. These are fat little 12mo books 
 of about 200 pages each, with colored illustrated covers. But much of the 
 coloring used in decorating the covers in this series, was not done by the print- 
 ing press. It was performed by paint brush and human hand, on each sep- 
 arate volume, as part of the original publication process. As a result of this 
 innovation, and also of course due in part to the increased size of the books, 
 these volumes were sold at 20 cents each. Their publication began in 1871, and 
 but few titles appeared. They are now exceedingly rare, although fifteen of 
 the thirty-one known items of the series are shown by the Library, including 
 No. 1. It is Albert Aitken's story of "Overland Kit." No. 11 is "Idaho Tom," 
 by Oil Coomes; No. 17 is Mrs. Victor's "Turkey Dan"; No. 27 is Buffalo Bill's 
 "Deadly Eye," and No. 29 is Badger's "Old Bull's Eye." All are attractive 
 and well-made little volumes. "Deadly Eye" is embellished by a cover por- 
 trait of Cody, done in colors. 
 
 Following the Type K books in the exhibition come 317 issues of the 
 "Beadle's Half-Dime Library." Somewhat more than one thousand titles 
 appeared in this series, and the Library's collection, therefore, contains nearly 
 one-third of the titles published in this form. As their collective name indi- 
 cates they were sold for five cents, and were the most ephemeral of all the 
 Beadle imprints. Millions of them came from the press, but, owing to their 
 cheapness, form, and popularity, virtually none were saved. 
 
 These tales are sixteen-page pamphlets of royal octavo size, with the 
 front page almost always filled by a strongly-drawn and dramatic illustration 
 portraying some vital incident of the narrative. Although the series, as a 
 whole, is mainly devoted to far western life and conditions, it also contains 
 numerous stories dealing with New York City. Among these the exhibition 
 shows copies of "Broadway Billy's Boodle" (No. 514); "Broadway Billy in 
 
12 THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY 
 
 Clover" (Xo. 678); and "Bicycle Bob's Hot Scorch, a Story of the Schoharie 
 County Hayseed in New York" (No. 989); all by Cowdrick; "Bowery Ben 
 in Chinatown" (No. 892), by Harold Payne; and "Buck Bumblebee, the Har- 
 lem Hummer" (No. 623); and "The Big Four of the Bowery" (No. 837), 
 both by Joseph Pierce. 
 
 Tiie far western tales and biographies in this series are particularly 
 interesting. Among the biographical issues are "Buffalo Billy, the Boy Bull- 
 whacker" (No. 191), by Captain Taylor; "Buffalo Bill's Bet" (No. 194), by 
 Taylor; "Bison Bill" (No. 216), by ingraham; "California Joe's First Trail" 
 (No. 376), by Col. Monstery; "CaHfornia Joe's War Trail" (No. 395), by 
 Captain Whittaker; Ingraham's narrative of Joe Bruce, the Texas Ranger, 
 under the title of "Arizona Joe" (No. 495); and the same author's story of 
 W'illiam L. Taylor of Texas, under the title of "Buck Taylor, King of the 
 Cowboys" (No. 497). The illustrations borne by all the titles of this series 
 wall be found to possess unusual interest, but some of the drawings have an 
 especial fascination. Notable in such regard are "Giant George" (No. 246); 
 "Sierra Sam's Pard" (No. 253); "The Scalp King" (No. 288); and "Ker- 
 Whoop, Ker-Whoo" (No. 318). 
 
 The largest group of all, in the Library exhibit, is that representing the 
 Type M publications of Beadle. These were collectively known as the Dime 
 Library, of which each issue w^as an imperial octavo of thirty-two pages, with 
 an illustration on the front cover. Nearly one thousand titles were issued in 
 this series, of which the Library possesses and shows 356, or considerably more 
 than one-third of all that were published. Probably a majority of the Dime 
 Library tales portray the conditions and famous characters of the Far West, 
 and among the pioneer phases of w^estern life with which its titles deal are 
 overland emigration, fur trapping, lumber-camp life, gold hunting, the Texas 
 War, the exploits of the Texas Rangers, the stage coach era, cattle rustling, 
 ranch life, vigilante rule, the depredations of road-agents, Indian fighting, and 
 conditions in all the new states and territories. 
 
 Many of these Dime Library pamphlets are also biographical. The nar- 
 ratives of this type dealing wnth celebrated western characters embrace "Kit 
 Carson, Jr., the Crack Shot of the West" (No. 3), by Major Hall; "Joaquin, 
 the Saddle King" (No. 154), by Badger; "Wild Bill" (No. 154), by Ingra- 
 ham; "Big Foot Wallace" (No. 204), by Major Hall; and "The Lasso King's 
 League" (No. 653), and "The Cowboy Clan" (No. 658), by Ingraham. The 
 last two named deal with Buck Taylor of Texas. Several of this series were 
 w-ritten by Cody, and still others relate to him. Among these are "Buffalo 
 Bill's Secret Trail" (No. 682), by Major Burr; and "Buffalo Bill's Body Guard" 
 (No. 727), by Ingraham. 
 
 Included also in this department of the collection are a number of 
 Aiken's stories of New York City life. Some of these titles are "The Wolves

 of New York" (No. 161); "The Phantom Hand, or the Heiress of Fifth 
 Avenue" (No. 72); and "The Wall Street Blood, or. Tick, Tick, the Tele- 
 graph Girl." 
 
 Following the imposing array just described there come, in the exhibition, 
 representatives of seven exceedingly rare groups of Beadle publications. Of 
 "Beadle's Dime Fiction Library," published in 1864 and 1865, only five 
 examples are present. The "Library of Choice Fiction," also published in 
 1864, is represented only by "The Maiden Martyr," which deals with the New 
 England witchcraft horror. "Beadle's 15 cent Novels" series, which appeared 
 in 1861, has a New York history specimen in the shape of "The Maid of Esopus, 
 or, The Trials and Triumphs of the Revolution." The "American Novels" 
 series contains nine titles. It appeared from 1865 to 1867, and the little books 
 bear the imprint of Irwin P. Beadle, who was a brother of Erastus. No. 7 of 
 this type is "Fort Stanwix; a Tale of the Mohawk in 1777," by Hamilton 
 ]\Iyers. Next in succession are "FVank Starr's American Novels," of which 
 there are but four, published from 1870 to 1872, and they, in turn, are followed 
 by four specimens of the "Frank Starr's Fifteen Cent Illustrated Novels," 
 which appeared in 1870 and 1871. 
 
 Last of all, in this group of rarities, are six copies of the "Boys' Books 
 of Romance and Adventure." These, which are perhaps the most uncommon 
 and important of the Beadle issues, are attractive octavos, on colored covers. 
 No. 1 of the series (which the Library shows), is Robinson Crusoe, but all 
 the others deal with famous personages and events in American history. Some 
 of the books contain several such narratives, among them being stories of 
 Marion and his men, of Daniel Morgan, of Tecumseh, Moody, Simon Girty, 
 and other historic characters of pioneer times. This series of publica- 
 tions was edited by Edward S. Ellis, and, like several other groups with 
 which it is associated in the exhibition, has hitherto escaped the knowledge 
 of bibliographers. 
 
 Once more there is a striking change in the bewildering display arranged 
 in the exhibition. The small and colorful exhibits just described are succeeded 
 by a large illustrated series printed in black and entitled "New and Old Friends." 
 These well-made royal octavo pamphlets of thirty-two pages appeared in 1873, 
 and of the fifteen known titles the Library possesses and show^s no less than 
 fourteen, only No. 2 of the file being absent. All relate to American pioneer 
 life. This series was enlarged to folio size after the fifteenth issue, and two 
 examples in the larger form are in the exhibit. One of them is "Oonomoo, the 
 Huron." by Ellis. Of this tale Senator Zachariah Chandler once said: "The 
 man who does not enjoy 'Onoomoo the Huron' has no right to live." 
 
 "The New York Library," issued under the Frank Starr imprint for a 
 short time in 1877 is next represented by No. 19, which is "Red Cedar, the 
 Prairie Outlaw," and it is followed by nine copies of "Beadle's Popular 
 
14 THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY 
 
 Library," an imperial octavo series devoted to western and detective exploits. 
 These bring to an end the historical and semi-historical tales published under 
 various imprints by the house of Beadle. 
 
 There still remain, however, two other important phases of its activity 
 which demand attention, and which, in point of chronology, even ante-dated 
 the different types of books and pamphlets already described. When Erastus 
 Beadle removed from Buffalo to New York, in 1858, his first ventures were 
 a number of little hand-books on various subjects, and song books. These 
 appeared from 1858 to 1860, and numerous specimens of them are contained 
 in the Library's exhibit. These were 12mo or 16mo in size, and were pre- 
 sented in attractive colored covers, sometimes with illustrations. Most impor- 
 tant and historically valuable of these publications were the Beadle Baseball 
 Guides, that began to appear in 1859 or 1860 and were continued for about 
 twenty years. They were the first continuous series of baseball guides in the 
 world, and contain a huge mass of information relating to the national game 
 that is nowhere else to be found. In that respect they are invaluable, and no 
 history of baseball can be written without constant recourse to them. 
 
 Other volumes of like character in the exhibition are the "Joke Books"; 
 the "Year Book and Almanac"; the "Ladies Letter Writer"; the "Housewife's 
 Manual"; the "Book of Verse"; the "Debater"; the "Elocutionist," and the 
 three issues of the "Book of Fun." The "Book of Fun No. 3" is notable 
 because of the fact that it is the first edition, in book form, of Mark Twain's 
 story of the Jumping Frog, which is contained on pages 29 to 32. This vol- 
 ume appeared in 1866, preceding by a year the appearance of the pamphlet 
 commonly accepted as the first edition of the tale. 
 
 Of similar size and make-up are the series of "Dime Dialogues" and 
 "Dime Speakers," which are also shown. The Dialogue series contained at 
 least forty-one issues, and the speaker series is known to have embraced twenty- 
 five books. Numerous copies of each are shown, the Speaker No. 1 being 
 dated 1861. 
 
 Erastus Beadle was himself a great lover of out-door sports and out- 
 door life (due, no doubt, to his immediate pioneer ancestry), and in addition 
 to the baseball guides he published many other similar hand-books. The Library 
 exhibition contains copies of the Beadle "Book of Cricket," of "Football," of 
 "Croquet," of "Skating," of "Curling," of "Pedestrianism," and of "Riding 
 and Driving." All these appeared in the '60's. 
 
 With the outbreak of the Civil War the publisher began the issuance of 
 little volumes designed to inform the Northern public regarding its military 
 leaders, and this phase of Beadle activity continued until 1865. Among books 
 of this sort shown in the exhibition are biographies of the principal Union 
 Generals, the "Report of General Grant," and the "Story of the Grand March" 
 
THE BEADLE COLLECTION 15 
 
 made by Sherman. All were published at ten cents, and each contains about 
 100 pages of text. 
 
 Most important of all the Beadle series, from the historical standpoint, is 
 that known as Type C and entitled "Lives of Great Americans." It appeared 
 monthly, in the 70's, for about a year, and contained thirteen different titles. 
 All these are rare, yet the Library file, as shown, contains no less than eleven of 
 them and embraces the lives of Washington, Paul Jones, Anthony Wayne, Ethan 
 Allen, Lafayette, Israel Putnam, Crockett, Tecumseh, Lincoln, Pontiac and 
 Grant. Those lacking are the lives of Boone and Kit Carson. This series is 
 attractively bound in colored illustrated covers, much of the coloring having 
 been done by brush. There was also issued a Life of General McClellan, and 
 a memorial edition of the Life of Grant, issued after his death. Both of these 
 are shown. 
 
 The other manifestation of Beadle's early activities after his removal to 
 New York was his issuance of popular song books. One of the first of these 
 was the "Dime School Melodist" of 1859. The Library copy (a later edition) 
 is dated 1860. 
 
 Following it came three distinct series of song literature. The first was 
 a collection called the "Dime Song Book," which began in 1859 and embraced 
 some twenty or more separate numbers that came out periodically. The earliest 
 shown by the Library is Number 3, dated 1859. They were 12mos in salmon 
 colored covers, and each number contained sixty or seventy of the popular 
 ballads of that time. 
 
 The second series of songsters was named the "One Cent Song Book," 
 of which nine different numbers are known to exist, and of which the Library 
 shows eight (lacking only No. 6). As its name indicates, it was sold for a 
 cent, and was a 16mo eight-page pamphlet. All numbers are extremely rare. 
 It was published in 1868. Previously, in 1861, the "Dime Union Song Book" 
 in two numbers had been brought out, containing the war songs of the North. 
 
 The third and last songster series was a pretentious royal octavo in size, 
 and named "Beadle's Singers' Library." Beginning in 1878, it continued 
 weekly into 1879, and 43 separate numbers are known. Of these the Library 
 possesses an almost complete file, lacking only numbers 3 and 20, with nearly 
 all the numbers in first edition. The first editions of these items had large 
 colored vignette illustrations on the front page, with much of the coloring 
 done by hand. Each number contained fifty or more songs of the day, the 
 entire series, therefore, embracing more than two thousand of the songs most 
 popular with the Americans of 43 years ago. 
 
 For that reason it is also a historically invaluable collection, since the 
 song literature it contains discloses, in striking manner, the prevailing thoughts 
 and manners of society. Many of the songs themselves, both in title and text, 
 reveal the prevalence of an artificial sentimentality, a tolerance of crime and

 vulgarity, a worship of alcohol, and a laxity of morals decidedly in contrast 
 with ideas now prevailing. A column might be filled with the peculiar titles 
 to these interesting ditties. Among them are "The Crackman's Chant," "Pull 
 Down the Blind," "Battle of the Kegs," "Since Terry First Joined the Gang," 
 "Grease the Griddle, Birdie, Darling," "When Brown Comes Rolling Home," 
 "She Was Clerk in a Candy Store," "Billiards and Pool," "See that my Nose 
 is kept Red," "The Way my Daddy Went," "I'm Dancing Mad," "The Old 
 W^hisky Jug," "Go It While You're Young," "The Rat Catcher's Daughter," 
 "On Coney Island Beach,^' "She W^ept her Life Away," "Charge the Can 
 Cheerily," "Bright, Bright Wine," "I Fancy I've seen you Before," "Charley 
 the Masher," "Please Father don't Drink Any More," "Come Home Mother," 
 and "Dear Father, Come Down with the Stamps." 
 
 Although the preceding outline of Beadle activities sufficiently suggests 
 that his career was not confined to the publishing of adventure tales, according 
 to the general impression, there still remain to be noticed the items which ter- 
 minate the distinctively Beadle phase of the Library's exhibition. They are 
 four in number, of which three are newspapers and one is a pretentious monthly 
 magazine. The magazine in question is "The Home Monthly," four volumes 
 of which appeared in Buffalo during the years 1856-1860, before Beadle came 
 to New York City. It ranked among the best periodicals of the country. The 
 Library shows it in completeness. 
 
 The newspapers were all published in New York City. "Belles and 
 Beaux" was a home weekly issued during 1874. It is represented by Number 3 
 of Volume I. Only a few scattered numbers are known. "Girls of Today," 
 which came out in 1875/6, is shown in a complete volume. The "Young New 
 Yorker," which was issued in 1878/9, is also on view in the shape of a complete 
 volume. It was an excellent illustrated journal intended to foster a love of 
 nature and out-of-door life, and completes the cycle of Beadle literature, which, 
 for extent and variety, has scarcely been approached by any other American 
 publisher. 
 
 The remainder of the collection (not exhibited) consists of numerous 
 series of adventure tales and other dime novels, nearly all of which were inspired 
 by, and followed, in the wake of the Beadle imprints. First in this section come 
 thirty-two of the tales published by DeWitt in imitation of the original salmon- 
 colored Beadle books. Robert DeWitt began their publication in New York 
 in 1867, closely following the outward appearance of the Beadle books, and 
 they continued to appear, to the number of more than 118, during the follow- 
 ing ten years. To some degree, also, the DeWitt volumes dealt with the same 
 pioneer subjects and conditions, although they were frankly fiction, and not 
 nearly so well written as the Beadle books. 
 
 Another imitator of Beadle had appeared in Boston in 1864 or 1865, in 
 the shape of the publishing firm of Elliott, Thomes and Talbot, which then 
 
THE BEADLE COLLECTION , 17 
 
 began the issuance of a series of little blue bound books of adventure. Some 
 thirteen of this series are known. They are excellently made volumes, well 
 printed, of about 120 pages each, and were sold for ten cents. They, however, 
 were not wholly confined to American life in their subject matter, but included 
 stories dealing with other lands. 
 
 Still a third imitator of Beadle was Sinclair Tousey of New York, who, 
 in 1864, began publishing a series called "American Tales." These were 
 octavos in colored illustrated covers, and were sold for 15 cents. They (doubt- 
 less due to the date of their appearance) relate to the Civil War and its events. 
 
 Following are fifty-six numbers of the most famous of the later 
 generation of American dime novels. These are the "Old Cap Collier 
 Stories," first published by the house of Munro in 1883. George Munro, 
 the originator of the house, was at first a bookkeeper for Erastus Beadle, 
 but in 1866 Munro left the Beadle establishment, and, in conjunction with 
 Irwin Beadle, set up a competing enterprise and began the issuance of Munro's 
 Ten Cent Novels. They likewise covered the same historic ground, were put 
 out in the same general form, and acquired great popularity. Later, however, 
 the Munro books underwent a radical change, and the "Old Cap Collier" stories 
 took the place of the more solid historical material. The first of the Cap Collier 
 series dealt with the Savin Rock Mystery of New^ Haven, and the ensuing 
 numbers of the series did not bear any numerical designation until several had 
 appeared. It continued as a semi-weekly issue for several years, as an octavo, 
 and later became an imperial octavo. A copy in the large size, as it appeared 
 31 years ago, is also included. This title is "The Death of Sitting Bull, or. 
 General Custer Avenged," and is number 391 of the entire Munro output. 
 
 Other series of similar later publications are the "Old Sleuth Library," 
 the "W^ide Awake Library," the "War Library," the "Five Cent Weekly 
 Library," the "Comic Library," the "Army and Navy Library," the "Nickel 
 Library," the "Log Cabin Library," and the "Camp Fire Library." All these 
 are degenerate and feeble imitations of the earlier Beadle pubHcations, but 
 necessary in any comprehensive collection of this most unusual and significant 
 phase of American literature. The final group, by contrast, contains several 
 copies of "The Novelette," first issued in Boston by Ballou in 1857, and which 
 is believed to have suggested to Erastus Beadle — in part at least — his great 
 enterprise. The "Novelette" titles are pretentious and well-printed tales relat- 
 ing to American history.
