Series Notes:
1. Numbers 1-74 were published in this series in 1895-1896.
2. Numbers 75-87 were first published in this series in 1897.
3. This series has been arbitrarily divided into three separate listings. These Series #141, 142 and 143 are divided based on their book lists. From 1895-1897 the list above is seen. In 1898 (Series #142) for only one year a different list was used. Finally, from 1899 to the end of the series run, the commonly used Publisher's Series alphabetical list was in play.
4. During most of the years of this series the books had a decorative white vellum which changed year to year on the left of the cover and had one of numerous decorative patterns on the right (many of which are repeated year after year). The pictures seen on the three Petit Trianon pages show the various cover pictures seen to this date. As more are found, they will be added.
