THE BOBBSEY TWINS AT SCHOOL By Laura Lee Hope

The Bobbsey Twins at School, the fourth book in the long-running Stratemeyer Syndicate series, was originally published by Grosset & Dunlap in 1913. Early editions featured white spine dust jackets and standard artwork with a circular spine emblem declaring "For Children of 5 to 10 Years." The books were bound in green cloth with applique covers that matched the artwork on the dust jacket. In the early 1920's G&D introduced new dust jacket and applique artwork. Circa 1930, the "For Children of 5 to 10 Years" emblem disappeared, the applique cover was eliminated and this title was published with a plain white spine dust jacket, with the exisiting cover art, for the remainder of the decade. Some print runs offered Bobbsey Twins paperdolls on the rear panel of the dust jackets. In the early 1940's, G&D switched to the pink spine dust jacket format. In the late 1940's, the blue and white spine dust jacket format was introduced. In the early 1950s, in an attempt to keep the series current, the text of The Bobbsey Twins at School was revised and the book was reissued, still using the blue and white spine artwork. In 1962, Grosset & Dunlap updated the text again and issued this title in picture cover format, with new artwork, as The Bobbsey Twins' Mystery at School. In 1989, this title was revised for a third time and reissued in a thin, red spine picture cover edition with new artwork by Pepe Gonzalez.
