"Lovell's" Libraries and Series advertised in periodicals

Eight "Lovell's" series are covered in the first December 1889 issue of The American Bookseller: A Semi-Monthly Journal [...] ("Additions to the Libraries", pp. 666-67):

  • Lovell's American Novelists Series
  • Lovell's Household Library
  • Lovell's International Series
  • Lovell's Illustrated Series
  • Lovell's Library
  • Lovell's Literature Series
  • Lovell's Occult Series
  • Lovell's Political and Scientific Series

Probably this covers the final, highest-numbered issues of Lovell's Library, namely #1411 to 1457. One more series is known from 1890, when it was published by United States Book Company, the successor to John W. Lovell.
