Tip Top Weekly, Vol. 1, No 25 (October 3, 1896) The "Nickel Weekly" books presented novella-length stories for readers, and one of the most successful was the Frank Merriwell series, written by Gilbert Patten (writing as Burt L. Standish). Between 1896 and 1930, the character appeared in more than 200 books, plus radio dramas, a comic strip, and a 12-episode movie serial. There are at least three generations of Merriwells: Frank, his half-brother Dick, and Frank's son, Frank Jr. There is a marked difference between Frank and Dick. Frank usually handled challenges on his own. Dick has mysterious friends and skills that help him, especially an old Indian friend without whom the stories would not have been quite as interesting.
