This Canadian firm published seven Peck
books.
1. Peck's Boy and His Pa (Combination of
"Peck's Bad Boy, No. 1 and His Pa" and "Peck's Bad Boy and
the Grocery Man".)
2. Peck's Bad Boy and His Pa
3. Peck's Bad Boy and the Grocery Man
4. Peck's Bad Boy with the Cowboys (Not seen)
5. Peck's Bad Boy in an Airship (Not seen)
6. Peck's Bad Boy with the Circus ( Not seen)
7. Peck’s Bad Boy Abroad (Not seen)
Two combination books have been seen. The
earlier one is undated but since it mentions Jackie Coogan
starring in the "Peck’s Bad Boy" movie, it cannot be
earlier than 1921. The other combination book has a dated
title page-1935.
The clothbound books are identical except
for the dust jackets. Both are 7.5" x 5".

Later Combination Book
Another Musson Peck book is Peck's Bad Boy and the Grocery
Man. This 151 page book includes the entirety of Peck's
Bad Boy #2. There are numerous illustrations by True
Williams. It is 8 x 5.5.
The date is unknown but there is an inscription in my copy
of December 25, 1919.
Peck's Bad Boy and His Pa as a single volume that is not
in combination with Peck's Bad Boy and the Grocery Man was
also published by this firm. It is of the same format
(size, cover, etc.) as the Peck's Bad Boy and the Grocery
Man noted just above.
The exact date of publication is unknown but the volume
above has a 1919 inscription. This book also has a number
of True Williams illustrations.
The book shown here is undated. It has 176 pages and has
36 chapters. It is 8 x 5.5.
