John Erskine Clarke (1827-1920) who was the editor until 1902, it started as a weekly consisting of puzzles, vignettes, pictures etc. ... Estes and Lauriat (and its successor Dana Estes & Co) published its first Chatterbox in 1878. These firms published the English edition of the Chatterbox far longer than any other publishing house. The Chatterbox style of books were incredibly popular and huge best sellers. A number of firms published books with the "Chatterbox" in the name.... Estes & Lauriat attempted to enjoin other publishers from printing the English Chatterbox as well as any other books that contained the Chatterbox name in the title. Worthington published Chatterboxes beginning in 1878 with similar but different content from the other firms' Chatterboxes.... In the spring of 1887 a permanent injunction against all the Worthington books that had Chatterbox in the title was granted. (from 19th Century Juvenile Series).
