The Spine has no picture symbol
on it. The back cover has the American Publishers Corp. logo and address. What is
interesting to note is that some of these volumes used the frontispieces inside as the cover
art instead of the volume's actual cover art. Examples below are for volumes #44, The
Clue in the Crossword Cipher, #46, The Invisible Intruder, and #48, The Crooked
Banister. These are very unique! A lot of these have inside pre-text listings of Nancy
Drew® volumes to #43, The Mystery of the 99 Steps, so I would say that these volumes
would be circa 1966--unless these were outdated lists that the publishers were using.
The American Publishers Corporation Library Editions
are my second favorite library editions. These green and white editions all come in a deep
olive green for the most part, however there are some volumes as shown below that are a more bright
green. All have black/white outlined pictures on the cover from the dust jacket/picture
cover art. All cover artists' art--Russell Tandy, Bill Gillies, and Rudy Nappi are used for
these. Most have the original texts
inside. White Multi I and II endpapers are bound inside.
