Barse of the publisher Brewer Barse and Co. Chicago partnered with John H. Hopkins and began publishing in New York City. Around 1925 the firm moved to Newark New Jersey. Given the lack of dates in many Barse & Hopkins reprints the inclusion of Newark on the book's title page can at least place the date of publication to after 1925. In 1928 Hopkins left the firm to become a literary agent. The firm continued as John H. Hopkins & Son until bankruptcy in 1932 when Grosset & Dunlap acquired the firm and its stock. Grosset & Dunlap continued to publish books with the imprint until at least 1937. seriesofseries.com/pocket-classics-barse-hopkins</p> Barse & Hopkins
