Early Bertha Clay Romance Novels
Long before the advent of Harlequin and other series of romance
novels American publishers of dime novels such as Street and Smith
recognized the importance of women as a market. We were fortunate
enough to find a cache of Bertha Clay romance novel paperbacks
in a Western Massachusetts estate. The condition reflects their
age and the cheap materials used in their manufacture. Chips and
tears in the covers are typical as is some spine loss and discoloration.
Each, however, is complete and an typical example of the genre.
