Davy Crockett, On The Track; Or, The Cave of The Counterfeiters. Complete serialised story in 30 chapter in The Saturday Evening Post Jan 3rd - Mar 21st 1874

Descripción

12 weekly issues of this famous newspaper/magazine with a complete and original story of Davy Crockett (rare). there are other short stories, articles and adverts, the 8 pages to each issue are still unopened along the top edges, there is wear small splits at crease or fold lines, edge chips and closed tears, but overall about very good for these rare survivors. There are also serial parts to East Lynne by Mrs Henry Wood, stories by Jack Ratlin, Clementine Montagu and many others, woodcut illustrations to the top of each issue, large broadsheet format. *NOTE: Although the legend of Davy Crockett is well known now and stories and TV shows and films have been made in the mid-20th century very little was printed about him at this period. His reputation has grown since then over the years since 1900 or so. There are NO copies found of this early complete serial, there is no hardback or paperback version found. So we surmise it never made it further than this weekly serial and no book-form edition was ever made? The story and its subtitle, both, have not been traced to any institutional library, here in the UK or in the USA. Frank Carroll has a brief notice on a book reprinted on the Civil War which can be found online, but again no other books by him found and no biographical details. (12 issues here).
