Tempo Books, and later Charter and Jove Books were the main publishers of the numbered series of Beetle Bailey Books in the US. Quite a few Tempo titles were reprinted as Charter or Jove. Although a numbered series, it was not consistent, as there were extra books published in between the 'numbered' ones.

With enormous thanks to RON FLICK for substantial information and image contribution without whom this gallery would have been innaccurate. Thanks also to Arizona Paul for image contribution.
