==List of titles== # ''Tom Swift and His Flying Lab'' (1954) # ''Tom Swift and His Jetmarine'' (1954) # ''Tom Swift and His Rocket Ship'' (1954) # ''Tom Swift and His Giant Robot'' (1954) # ''Tom Swift and His Atomic Earth Blaster'' (1954) # ''Tom Swift and His Outpost in Space'' (1955) # ''Tom Swift and His Diving Seacopter'' (1956) # ''Tom Swift in the Caves of Nuclear Fire'' (1956) # ''Tom Swift on the Phantom Satellite'' (1956) # ''Tom Swift and His Ultrasonic Cycloplane'' (1957) # ''Tom Swift and His Deep Sea Hydrodome'' (1958) # ''Tom Swift in the Race to the Moon'' (1958) # ''Tom Swift and His Space Solartron'' (1958) # ''Tom Swift and His Electronic Retroscope'' (1959) # ''Tom Swift and His Spectromarine Selector'' (1960) # ''Tom Swift and the Cosmic Astronauts'' (1960) # ''Tom Swift and the Visitor from Planet X'' (1961) # ''Tom Swift and the Electronic Hydrolung'' (1961) # ''Tom Swift and His Triphibian Atomicar'' (1962) # ''Tom Swift and His Megascope Space Prober'' (1962) # ''Tom Swift and the Asteroid Pirates'' (1963) # ''Tom Swift and His Repelatron Skyway'' (1963) # ''Tom Swift and His Aquatomic Tracker'' (1964) # ''Tom Swift and His 3-D Telejector'' (1964) # ''Tom Swift and His Polar-Ray Dynasphere'' (1965) # ''Tom Swift and His Sonic Boom Trap'' (1965) # ''Tom Swift and His Subocean Geotron'' (1966) # ''Tom Swift and the Mystery Comet'' (1966) # ''Tom Swift and the Captive Planetoid'' (1967) # ''Tom Swift and His G-Force Inverter'' (1968) # ''Tom Swift and His Dyna-4 Capsule'' (1969) # ''Tom Swift and His Cosmotron Express'' (1970) # ''Tom Swift and the Galaxy Ghosts'' (1971) The first 18 titles were released in a blue tweed cloth cover with a full color paper jacket. Volumes 1β18 were also published in a blue-spined picture cover edition with ''Tom Swift and the Electronic Hydrolung'' (in its first printing only) the only title with the picture cover imprinted directly on the "boards" and wrapping around the spine, rather than as a removable dust jacket. The "blue spine" editions lasted about a year and then the entire run of Tom Swift Jr. books was reproduced in yellow spine versions and all later titles were released in this format. The [[Hardy Boys]] books (another series from the [[Stratemeyer Syndicate]]) was also released in a blue spine version; this may have prompted the change in color. A few of the early titles of the Tom Swift Jr. series were re-released in the 1970s in paperback with new illustrations. In 1972, four (#14, #15, #16, and #17) were released as trade paperbacks. #14 was retitled ''Tom Swift in the Jungle of the Mayas'' and #15 was renamed ''Tom Swift and the City of Gold''. In 1977, six (#1β4, #6, and #8) were released as mass market paperbacks. One of the stories, #6 ''Tom Swift and His Outpost in Space'' was renamed ''Tom Swift and His Sky Wheel'' and repositioned as #5. There exist a number of foreign reprints of Tom Swift Jr. titles, including British, Japanese, Icelandic, and Dutch (#1-3, adapted by the Dutch author [[Willem van den Hout|Willy van der Heide]]). There is also a Tom Swift Jr. activity/coloring book and a rare Tom Swift Jr. board game. One episode of the ''Tom Swift/Linda Craig Mystery'' hour was aired in 1983, the only one of several proposed Tom Swift versions (including an elaborate "road show" movie) to actually appear before the public. The televised "Tom Swift" was unrelated to the character as depicted in any of the published series.
