Dutch Editions

There were two different editions published in Dutch by Uitgeverij Kluitman Alkmaar.  The first was titled "Trix Belden" and four titles plus an omnibus were released.  These looked very much like the German editions that were released in the seventies.

The next Dutch editions looked similar to the square covers and were called Trixie Belden.  Six titles were released and also an omnibus that is still available for purchase from the publisher and online book stores.

You may also be interested to know that Belden in Dutch, translates to the word "rang".
