William Lyles wrote, "Dell needed paper, which Western had in 1942, and because Western by this time needed printing work, which Dell could supply in the form of its new paperback line.

An examination of paperback books available at this time shows no consensus on standardization of any feature; each early company was attempting to distinguish itself from its competitors. Lyles commented, "Dell achieved more variety than any of its early competitors. It did so, at first, with an instantly identifiable format of vibrant airbrushed covers for its predominantly genre fiction, varying 'eye-in-keyhole' logos, <a href="/web/20150321091509/http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Map" title="Map">maps</a> on the back covers, lists of the books' characters, and 'tantalizer-pages'. The design was merchandising genius; it successfully attracted buyers, it sold books."<sup id="cite_ref-lyles_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-lyles-1"><span>[</span>1<span>]</span></a></sup></p> <p>The first four books did not feature maps on the back cover; this began with Dell #5, <i>Four Frightened Women</i> by <a href="/web/20150321091509/http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Harmon_Coxe" title="George Harmon Coxe">George Harmon Coxe</a>.

The map was meant as an aid to the reader, to show the location of the principal activity of the novel. Some were incredibly detailed; others somewhat stylized and abstract. The books were almost immediately known as "<a href="/web/20150321091509/http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mapback" title="Mapback">mapbacks</a>", and that nomenclature has lasted among collectors to this day.<sup id="cite_ref-canja_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-canja-2"><span>[</span>2<span>]</span></a></sup> The maps were "delicate and detailed".<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span>[</span>3<span>]</span></a></sup></p> <p>The novels in the mapback series were primarily mysteries/detective fiction but ran the gamut from romances (<i>Self-Made Woman</i> by <a href="/web/20150321091509/http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faith_Baldwin" title="Faith Baldwin">Faith Baldwin</a>, #163) to science fiction (<i><a href="/web/20150321091509/http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_First_Men_in_the_Moon" title="The First Men in the Moon">The First Men in the Moon</a></i> by <a href="/web/20150321091509/http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.G._Wells" title="H.G.
