Front Cover of the Snow White Edition
The "Story of" series of Snow White books were produced in 1938 by Whitman Publishing Company. Sold as a boxed set of eight, each illustrated story book was devoted to one character (the Princess and the individual Dwarfs). Printed on an inexpensive pulp stock with somewhat heavier stock covers, they were designed to be read and colored by younger readers. Each title measures 7.5" x 11" and contains 24 pages.
Each of the books were numbered 1044, and the set came housed together in an illustrated box.
