About Dustjackets: The dustjacket offered in this auction is digitally scanned from a high quality original at 600 DPI. The master is then carefully restored to remove any minor imperfections. This significantly enhances the eye appeal rather than just offering a color photocopy with flaws. Great care is taken to painstakingly retouch these images with emphasis on maintaining the full scope of the original artwork and preserving the texture and granularity of the original. The dustjacket is then printed on an industrial quality machine using premium paper to ensure the best quality possible ... this results in sharper, crisper images and much better color definition (tone, hue & saturation) than typically seen with pleasing results. About Title: Tom Swift competes against a marine salvage dealer in a race to create a more powerful magnet. Tom's latest invention faces a huge challenge when the United States Navy comes calling for assistance from Swift Construction. About Formats: The original Tom Swift series comprised 38 volumes issued in dustjackets from 1910 to 1935. In 1962, beginning with volume #41, the books were issued in picture cover editions [no dustjackets]. There are a few format changes which are useful to collectors in identifying Tom Swift printings: Binding: Quandrant Style (1-35) 1910-32; Thick Orange (1-38) 1932-35. Quadrant Style Dustjackets: 1910-17; Duotone Dustjackets 1918-23; Full Color Dustjackets 1924-35; About Author: Victor Appleton was a pseudonym used by the Stratemeyer Syndicate for the Don Sturdy, Tom Swift and Moving Picture Boys series, among others. Most of the Tom Swift books were actually written by Howard Garis [1873-1962].
