This
title was published in 1890 by Belford, Clarke and Company. Two
hardcover formats have been seen. Both are 12 mos. One is clothbound
whereas the other has a full cover appliqué. A paper bound copy of this
title was also published by Belford-Clarke Company in its Household
Library.
These books have 319 pages of vignettes by George W. Peck,
Bill Nye and M. Quad (Charles B. Lewis). Numerous illustrations are
noted. The Peck contributions come from Peck's Bad Boy and Peck's
Sunshine.
The first 315 pages are identical to American Wit and Humor which was first published by Belford, Clarke and Co. in 1883. (http://georgewpeck.com/amerwit1883.html)
