Original & Digest Series - Publisher: Forlagshuset Series:
Hardy Guttene
Known American Volumes: Original Texts: 1-38 Revised Texts: 4, 9 12, 14-16, and 19-23 39-58 Digests: 59-145, maybe on further. Casefiles: #79 known, others likely. . Published by Forlagshuset from 1950 until approximately 1990. Volumes 1 (Tower Treasure) through 46 (Flight 101) were issued chronologically. Then in early 1969, the revised text version of Footprints Under the Window was released. This revised text / new title / revised text / new title release pattern was continued until [c.] 1980. By this time American volumes 1-58 had been released under the handle "Hardy Guttene," as well as American revised editions 4, 9, 12, 14-16, and 19-23. Digests up until #109 were released until the demise of the series in 1990. It appears, however, that the older editions were being reprinted up until at least 1999. . The revised text editions of the above stated titles have two cover formats. To my knowledge, however, these are the only volumes with multiple arts. Unfortunately for me (and for all the kiddies who bought two versions of, essentially, the same book), the revised books were given completely new titles. . For a complete title listing and cover art gallery, please go to the NORWEGIAN HARDY BOYS SITE. Maybe one day I'll finish this page myself. . * "Revised Text" covers below are marked with an RT symbol.
