The Moving Picture Boys series was written between 1913 and 1922. Books in the series are The Moving Picture Boys, The Moving Picture Boys, in the West, The Moving Picture Boys, on the Coast, The Moving Picture Boys, in the Jungle, and The Moving Picture Boys in Earthquake Land. An excerpt from The Moving Picture Boys on the Coast reads " The two moving picture boys, I might explain briefly, were on their way to Flagstaff, Arizona, after having gone out into the wilds, with a cowboy guide, Hank Selby, to make moving picture films of some Moqui Indians who had broken away from their reservation, to indulge in some of their weird dances and ceremonies. While making these films, the boys and their companion, who were hidden in a cave where the Indians could not see them, saw the redmen about to torture, as they thought, four white prisoners. Joe and Blake recognized these men as their business rivals, who were also trying to get some moving picture films of the Indians, to secure a prize of a thousand dollars, offered by a New York geographical and ethnological society."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a series of puffs and chugs a big, shiny motor cycle turned from the road into the graveled drive at the side of a white farmhouse. Two boys sat on the creaking saddles. The one at the front handle bars threw forward the clutch lever, and then turned on the power sharply to drive the last of the gases out of the twin cylinders. The motor cycle came to a stop near a shed, and the two lads, swinging off, looked at each other for a moment. "Some ride, that!" observed one. "You had her going then, Blake!" "Just a little, Joe—yes. It was a nice level stretch, and I wanted to see what she could do." "You didn't let her out to the full at that; did you?" "I should say not!" answered the one who had ridden in front, and guided the steed of steel and gasoline. "She'll do better than ninety miles an hour on the level; but I don't want to ride on her when she's doing it." "Nor I. Well, it was a nice little run, all right. Funny, though, that we didn't get any mail; wasn't it?" "It sure was. I think somebody must be robbing the post-office, for we ought to have had a letter from Mr. Hadley before this," and he laughed at his own joke.
