Posted By: <b>Max Weder</b><p>Lee<br /><br />Prior to the internet and ebay, I had lots of difficulty finding these. In the past years, they have become easily available and the price has dropped accordingly. I don't have the circulation numbers here at work, but they were published weekly in the millions. "Burt Standish" is the pseudonym for Gilbert Patten, a Maine author who was the creator of Frank Merriwell and his younger brother Dick.<br /><br />Hundreds of baseball and other sports covers exist, as well as non-sports. I believe a listing of the baseball titles are available in Andy McCue's fine baseball fiction bibliography <i>Baseball by the Books </i>. Here's a link to a site which provides more details <a href="http://www-sul.stanford.edu:9001/dp/owa/pnpack.draw?pid=122" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www-sul.stanford.edu:9001/dp/owa/pnpack.draw?pid=122</a><br /><br />Hope this helps<br /><br />Max
