Lithographed Paper Toys, Books, and Games 1880 - 1915 (2000)

This book has an excellent section on lithographed games, primarily American, from the period. Lithography was still a new commercial process at the time these games were published, so the emphasis is on the art, much of it stunning. Even simple roll-and-move games are breath taking. While the book covers a variety of toys and published goods, the 55 pages of chapter 1 covers strictly games. Each game is pictured in full-color, often showing the box and the board in separate shots. The book also includes a 1-paragraph history of many of the publishers whose products are pictured.

Each game is also listed with a value, but the range on each price is huge and the prices are probably well out of date.
