Looking for info on a book: Christmas Chimes

I have a book I saved from my Grandfather's basement, but I can't find any info on it. It is Christmas Chimes published by Mcloughlin Bros., New York.

No date, no other info. Any of you sleuths know anything about it?

Well, you can (roughly) tell the date from the illustration of A Gallant Young Rough Rider.

Let's see what else we can find out for you.

Here's other copy. (Unfortunately, I don't have a subscription so I'm unable to tell you what it sold for, if indeed it did sell.)

Oh Debora, you make me look so bad. After a ton of research, I never saw that. I should remember to check there before posting bad questions. Thanks!

If anyone knows what the final price ended up, I'd appreciate hearing it.

 

Don't be silly. There are no bad questions. And everyone here is happy to help.

There's a 1903 McLoughlin Bros. catalogue that comes up in archive.org that gives a little info about the book. It cost 50 cents at the time. I believe that they reprinted their own books for a long time so all this proves is that the latest date it could have been published was 1903.

There is a black-and-white illustration of the cover: https://archive.org/details/mcloughlinbrothe00mclo/page/56
