These three early Electrical Juveniles are hard to find.
Here is another FIND from one of my over 500 boxes of books, ephemera and just stuff. It took 60+ years to accumulate these treasures, and each week, I retrieve a dozen or so boxes from my storage units and post some selected items on eBay.
John Trowbridge was a professor of Physics at Harvard University

Some comments on each book:
The Electrical Boy or the Career of Greatman and Greatthings, 1891.
Good condition. Nice gold lettering and illustration on spine. Deep red lettering and illustration on the cover. Text: "I'll put a girdle round about the earth in forty minutes." Some wear on cover edges and folds. All pages are clean. Several photos and illustrations. See Photos 2, 3, 4 & 5.
Three Boys on an Electrical Boat, 1894.
Good Condition. Front end papers clean but two rear endpapers have a numerical stamp and an "X". See Photos 6, 7 & 8.
The Wireless Telegraph Boy, 1908.
Good Condition, some wear on cover. Inscription on front end paper. Ex Lib with "Discarded" Stamp in a few places. See Photos 9, 10 11 & 12
