1916BIBLIO-58772Doubleday Page & Company Garden City first editions 1916. Editions of 70 copies for private distribution. 3 vols printed wrappers. various paginations. A complete set of the three pamphlets about the submarine service produced to secure American copyright and being the true first editions preceding the newspaper publication of the articles in The Times London and other English newspapers in June 1916. The articles were composed by Kipling from secret reports to the British Admiralty made available to him for propaganda purposes and comprise: I Some Work in the Baltic; II Business in the Sea of Marmora; and III Ravages and Repairs. The first pamphlet is introduced by Kipling's poem "The Trade": "They bear in place of classic names / Letters and numbers on their skin. / They play their grisly blindfold games / In little boxes made of tin / Sometimes they stalk the Zeppelin / Sometimes they learn where mines are laid / Or where the Baltic ice is thin. / That is the custom of "The Trade. Bookplate of the Chicago businessman and well-known collector John A. Spoor on front inside wrappers. Near Fine set in a card chemise and somewhat used slipcase.

1937BIBLIO-52449Macmillan and Co. Ltd London Sussex Edition 1937-39. Limited edition of 525 sets of which 500 signed by the author were for sale. However many of these were destroyed when the publisher's warehouse was bombed in 1941. 35 vols royal 8vo full russet Niger morocco handmade paper top edges rough-gilded other edges untrimmed. several thousand pages. The Sussex edition is the definitive edition of Kipling's works splendidly produced and much sought after by collectors. Some contemporary Macmillan advertising material described it thus: "The Sussex Edition had been planned some years before the author's death and was designed to rank as the definitive edition of all his works in prose and verse in the most complete and handsome form. Kipling had undertaken a detailed revision of the text for this purpose and had autographed and numbered the first volume of each set. He left behind him careful instructions regarding the unpublished or uncollected writings which are so conspicuous and interesting a feature of the Sussex Edition. This material includes over sixty stories articles and speeches besides such groups of papers as The War in the Mountains Eyes of Asia and Brazilian Sketches none of them previously published in book form if at all in this country and the whole of his early or uncollected verse." From a contemporary review in the TLS: "The publishers are justified in the use of the epithet "superb" to describe this edition. The fine hand-made paper and Bembo type are equally satisfactory : but perhaps the binding is still more notable. It is . Niger leather lettered and simply ornamented in gold. The volumes though ten inches by six and three quarter inches in size are comparatively slim and so easy to hold; and they have an air of durability and of being meant for reading as well as for keeping which is not always the case with éditions de luxe. Set No.215. Armorial bookplate on the front pastedown endpaper of each volume: 'Ex Libris des Comtes Arrivabene Valenti-Gonzaga'. Spines rubbed and several volumes with some corner or edge-wear or small scrapes to the leather three volumes 5 6 7 with blotches to the spine sometimes extending slightly to the boards; otherwise a good set with good uniformity of colour not always the case with this edition. Internally excellent - clean fresh copies with most volumes unopened or largely so. Macmillan and Co. Ltd, London, Sussex Edition, 1937-39 hardcover

First edition of The Story of the Gadsbys later intermediate issue see details below; probable Third Indian Edition of Wee Willie Winkie. 4 leaves pp. 1 2-12 13-102 4 leaves; with inserted insurance ad Gadsbys; 4 leaves pp. 9-96 Winkie. 2 vols. 8vo. First published in 1888 when Kipling was 23 and working in India for The Civil and Military Gazette Lahore these two volumes contain stories written for periodicals. They were published in the "India Railway Library" series No. 2 and No. 6. respectively by A.H. Wheeler at Allahabad and went into several editions. Kipling left India for London the following year. At the bottom of the first title is stamped "A.J. Combridge & Co. Bombay".<br/><br/>THE STORY OF THE GADSBYS conforms to the first issue of the front wrappers in two of the three relevant issue points the mountains appear to be retouched as per the second issue; however the heart shape in lower left corner not touching the border and absence of the "Mayo Art School Lahore" slug beneath the imprint are both points which conform to the first issue indicating a possible unrecorded intermediate issue see Richards p. 90.<br/><br/>WEE WILLIE WINKIE conforms to Stewart's description of the third Indian Edition made up of three thousand sheets printed for the first English edition.

1891137341891. Authorized Edition. New York: Lovell Coryell & Company n.d. 1892. Original maroon cloth beveled. First Combined Edition later issue with Lovell Coryell rather than United States Book Co. as the publisher. These two pieces first appeared in 1888 as the second and fourth numbers in the Indian Railway Series Allahabad; John Lovell issued each in wrappers in 1890 in his "Westminster Series" before combining the two in the present volume U.S. Book Co. in 1891 Lovell Coryell in 1892. This would be a fine copy were it not for the slight fading of the maroon spine -- almost unavoidable for this color. See Richards A42 note; Stewart 50. This is the George Barr McCutcheon copy with his bookplate housed in a morocco-backed slipcase with inner chemise. <br/><br/> hardcover books
189017070206Allahbad India: A.H. Wheeler 1890. Hardcover. Good . Octavo size 97 pp. Joseph Rudyard Kipling 1865-1936 remains a literary force today through his many stories including "The Jungle Book" and poems such as "Gunga Din". A recipient of the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1907 at the age of 42 he remains the youngest recipient to date; considered for the British Poet Laureateship and a knighthood he refused both.<br/><br/>This is one of Kipling's earliest published writings this volume was number two in the "Indian Railway Series" first published in 1888 in wrappers. This volume seems to a variant of the first English edition with the title page listing "Author of 'Soldiers Three' 'Wee Willie Winkie' Etc." directly beneath the author's name; however while showing Messrs. A.H. Wheeler & Co. Allahabad as publisher it does not also list Sampson Low Marston Searle & Rivington. Pagination also most closely matches the first English without the three leaves between the contents and text and with two leaves of advertisements at the end not one. Interestingly the portion of the front wrap tipped onto the front board does not match exactly that shown in Livingston although clearly it is the same scene with minor details having been changed.<br/><br/>___DESCRIPTION: Bound between boards covered with marbled paper green cloth shelfback the illustration only from the front wrapper tipped onto the front board and the illustration from the back wrapper tipped onto the back board with a library number assigned to the cloth spine in white to the illustration on the front board in red and to the front free endpaper in red but no other library markings no pockets; octavo size 8.75" by 5.5" pagination: i-ii ads iii title page iv ads v-vi preface vii contents viii blank 1-86 87 "Opinions of the Press" 88-89 ads.<br/><br/>___CONDITION: Good overall the binding while worn is sturdy and the text is complete; with the library markings as set forth above the boards somewhat rubbed corners worn and bumped prior owner name stamped to front paste down wear and old damp stains to the first leaf and the final two leaves otherwise internally quite good title page with "0/800" in black to middle of the page gutter crack between last two pages of ads. An interesting variant that is worn externally readable as is a good copy.<br/><br/>___CITATION: Variant of Livingston 33.<br/><br/>___POSTAGE: International customers please note that additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs; please inquire for details.<br/><br/>___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA ILAB and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.
