To the left is my book cover collage of the entire Trixie Belden series: Golden Press #1-34 (oval) and #35-39 (square). The center image is from the Whitman hard cover cameo format of #12 Mystery of the Blinking Eye (my favourite story). If you are interested in seeing (larger) pictures of the Trixie Belden series formats (dust jacket, cellophane/glossy, cameo, deluxe, plain, oval, square) there is a link further down on this page.
Most of the tidbits here are less general, more on the trivia side, so it is assumed you already have a basic knowledge of the series. All information contains book and page number references. Each have been taken from Golden Press paperback formats: #1-34 (oval) and #35-39 (square). If the subject is mentioned again, that reference will follow in brackets by (book-page).
Trixie Belden RE-ISSUE
June 26, 2003 - I picked up my copies of the first two books today. I thought I would have to special order them, but when I went into McNally Robinson (a great local book store) on Monday to do so, the lady in the children's section told me they knew about the re-issue and that they had already been ordered. On Tuesday they phoned to say the books were in stock. My books were published "simultaneously in Canada by Random House of Canada Limited, Toronto." I was disappointed to find out they are cellophane "glossies."
October 14, 2004 - Book numbers 8 and 9 are published, but I thought you might like to see the original artwork. As well, here is the artwork for numbers 12 and 13.

have followed an orderly timeframe. Suddenly, Time Warps abound. It's back to
the beginning of summer vacation in #13 - again in #19 - again in #35 - and
again in #38 (Trixie remains 14). In between, the calendar bounces to and
fro. Perhaps, apart from Time Warps, there are some Parallel Universes going
on here, as well. |

Trixie or Di). (date otherwise unknown) |

Brian Belden |
3 |
39 |
October. We find out in #28 (p.75)
that he is a Libra, but "close enough to a Scorpio." Libra ends
October 22 or 23, depending on which reference you look at. Thanks to great detective work by Denise H., we now know
that Brian's birthday must be October 22. On page 89, Trixie is finishing her
Saturday morning chores - 3 days after Brian had collapsed at his birthday
dinner. The following Friday is Halloween (pp 175-176), thereby making his
birthday fall on the 22nd. |
Mart Belden |

"My birthday is next
week." Most likely July, as in #13 (after a backwards time warp from #11
& #12) they were "just out of school" and Cobbett's Island was
for 10 days and a little later this trip to Virginia, also about 10 days duration,
and in #15 Di is away "for a month" |
Helen Belden |

Monday is her birthday. (The book
started on Tuesday, August 22, therefore that would make it August 28.) |

** It's Brian's birthday but we do not know how old he's turning. He's 17 in #27 and in #30. He shouldn't be turning 18 if Trixie is still 14, so perhaps this is a time warp backwards, fitting somewhere between "almost 17" in #11 and being 17 in #18 & #27 (which both also take place in October).
*** This is the only reference ever made to Dan's age, and if we look at where he is in school, we are even less enlightened: After starting off in Mart's class (8-80), he is in the same class with Jim and Brian (9-16/17) , he and Mart are sophomores (26-18), he is in Brian's chemistry class (27-21), he is in Brian's social studies class (31-54).
