See my listings for more -- several different classic juvenile series & mystery jackets available. All digitally remastered dustjackets are shipped in a removable, Brodart or Demco archival dustjacket protector, and ready to place on your book. Due to the scarcity of this dustjacket, I have added an embossed digital watermark to these images to avoid unauthorized duplication. The embossed watermark will NOT appear over the artwork on the front panel. The counter-stamps identifying this as a reproduction WILL appear discretely on the flaps only. Collector's Tip: Artwork: The same Russell Tandy jacket artwork was used on all printings from 1934 thru 1950. Original Text (OT): All books originally paired with this jacket had the original text of 219 pages written by Mildred Wirt. The original text books typically had 25 chapters. Illustrations: All Nancy Drew books printed up thru 1936 originally came with 4 glossy illustrations. Books printed after 1936 thru 1942 had only one glossy illustration. About Postage: Combined shipping: Dustjackets are shipped boxed & wrapped via USPS First Class Parcel. First remastered dustjacket is $3.00. Each additional dustjacket is only 50c. Any extra postage charged at eBay checkout will be refunded. About Dustjackets: The dustjacket offered in this auction is digitally scanned from a high quality original. The master is then carefully restored to remove any minor imperfections. This significantly enhances the eye appeal rather than just offering a color photocopy with flaws. Great care is taken to painstakingly retouch these images with emphasis on maintaining the full scope of the original artwork and preserving the texture and granularity of the original. The dustjacket is then printed on an industrial quality machine which far exceeds the image quality possible on any inkjet printer, and produces sharper, crisper images and much better color definition (tone, hue & saturation) with pleasing results. About Formats:: The original Nancy Drew series comprised 38 volumes issued in dustjackets from 1930 to 1961. In 1962, beginning with volume #39, the books were issued in picture cover editions [no dustjackets]. There are a few format changes which are useful to collectors in identifying Nancy Drew printings: Binding color: Blue (1-7) 1930-32; Blue w/ Orange Silhouette (1-23) 1932-46 White Spine Dustjackets (1-18): 1930-41; White Spine Dustjackets w/ Silhouette (1-22): 1941-45 About Author: Carolyn Keene was a pseudonym used by the Stratemeyer Syndicate for the Nancy Drew and the Dana Girls series. The early Nancy Drew books were actually written by journalist Mildred Wirt. Wirt wrote the first 7 Nancy Drew titles, plus additional titles from vol. 11 to 25 and vol.30.
