Palmer Cox Primers & Children's Books
Palmer Cox, author of the Brownies, co-wrote with E. Veale,
the Fairy Tales authoress, six illustrated children's books given
as advertising premiums. In each package of Union Club Coffee
or Russian Oolong Tea was a coupon which entitled the bearer to
one of the Palmer Cox books. The 32 page booklets had black and
white illustrations and contained several stories. They are copyrighted
1896. They measure 6.25" wide x 9" high. They are in
exceptional condition given their age and the poor quality of
paper used. Defects are noted. Click on picture to see an enlarged
