Created by Edward Stratemeyer, who pioneered the method of using teams of writers under a single pen name to create long-running series.
One of the first house pseudonyms. According to L.W. Currey, the first six books of "The Great Marvel Series" were written by Howard R. Garis from plots provided by Edward Stratemeyer. Here we credit them to Garis only.
- Update 2022-10-07. For the Great Marvel series we credit Stratemeyer as co-author of the first eight Great Marvel books; that is, 8 of 9, or all that were published during his lifetime.
- SFE4 credits single authors, never Stratemeyer, including W. Bert Foster for volume 6, On a Torn-Away World (1913), the only discrepant identification of Stratemeyer's writer.
