Listing Terms and Conditions
Placing a bid is an agreement to purchase. If you are the inning bidder, you are committed to purchasing and picking up your item(s) or making shipping arrangements.

If you default on your purchase, your bidding privileges will be revoked and you will be reported. Please do not bid if you do not plan to purchase.

If you bid, you MUST be available to pick up your purchases on the scheduled pick up date unless you have made prior shipping arrangements.

Please bring necessary tools and help for picking up large items. Loading assistance is not available. Some items may be located in the basement.

Please wait for your online invoice to be emailed to you before paying, so that we can group multiple wins on one invoice.

Invoices will be sent out once the sale has completely closed. Payment is due immediately upon receipt of invoice.

Payments must be made by Tuesday March 28th at 12pm. You can pay with a major credit card or PayPal.

If we do not hear from you within 24 hours of the auction's close, your items will be resold to the next highest bidder and your bidding privileges will be revoked.

Shipping is available at the buyer's expense. We use UPS Mail. After your sale invoice is paid, you will receive a separate PayPal invoice for shipping charges. Depending on the size of the sale and amount of shipping, it may be several days after pickup before you receive your shipping invoice.

If you require shipping, please send an email to bmurray@caringtransitions.net so we know not to expect you at pickup.

All items must be paid for before they are picked up or shipped.

The exact address of the pickup will be on the invoice.

Any items not picked up during the scheduled pickup time will be considered abandoned and will be donated or resold. If items are transported to a different location due to failure to pick up during the scheduled time, a $20 per lot transport fee will be charged.

A 15% buyer's premium will be added to the bid amount.

We have made every effort to describe this item as accurately as possible. Expect normal signs of wear associated with antiques, vintage, and used items. We do not list every flaw. All items are sold AS IS. No refunds or returns. Caring Transitions does not guarantee the working order of any clock, watch, electronic or mechanical device. Dimensions given may be approximate.
Listing Information

The Larsson Dime Novel Collection contains 2000 plus Dime Novels and Story papers. Included in our first, of several, online auctions are publications from Munro's Ten Cent Novels, Tip Top Weekly, Secret Service, Pluck and Luck, Diamond Dick Jr., Old Cap Collier Library, Young Broad Brim Weekly, Brave and Bold, Nick Carter Stories, The Old Log Cabin, Beadles Pocket Library, Beadle's Half Dime Library, Beadle New York Dime Library just to name a few!!

These Dime Novels have been examined by Professor Marlena Bremseth, Editor of Dime Novel Roud Up and Professor of Popular Culture Literature. She found that most are authentic originals, though some were found to be reprints of certain dime novels produced by Charles Bragin's Dime Novel Club and the M. C. Ivers and Arthur Westbrook Publishing companies. In terms of condition, Professor Bremseth stated that considering their ages (many are 100 or more years old), most of the items are in fair to good condition, meaning that while some are somewhat worn or bent, perhaps tom at the edges, browned and/or brittle, others possess very little damage overall. 

Please see attached letter of authentication from Professor Bremseth for more details. 

 

If you are new to Dime Novels here is a brief history from The USF Libraries (https://www.lib.usf.edu/special-collections/):

 

During the mid 19th to the early 20th century, dime novels, penny dreadfuls, and story papers flourished in England and America. 

Dime novels and story papers targeted a youthful working-class audience with their thrilling, stereotyped tales of Wild West adventures, master criminals, detective stories, historical romances, and working girls and boys in which virtue was rewarded and preserved. 

Once the bane of the middle class, these little books were considered the corrupters of youth and stepping stones on the path to perdition. Today, dime novels illustrate the reading tastes of an increasingly literate working-class audience, as well as developments in early 20th century printing. They also provide useful resources for scholars interested in popular history and culture, women’s studies, and English and American Literature.
