1891WRCLIT61926New York: Dodd Mead 1891. Rose cloth over boards lettered in yellow top edge stained brown. Spine a trifle darkened with some hand-smudging to cloth small nick at crown of spine but a very good copy. An American issue of the British sheets. Mason/Millard was unable to examine a copy of the American issue of the first edition sheets but describes a literal date in the title-imprint in a binding of the same color of cloth as this copy with the same overall dimensions. However the American issue of the second London edition does bear a literal date 1894 in the title imprint and is bound in tan cloth. Hence the copy in hand is most likely not a variant of the American issue of the second edition and may very well be the American issue of the first edition sheets 600 copies at variance from Mason/Millard's speculative description. With the pencil ownership inscription of American publisher Ingalls Kimball dated Chicago August 1894. MASON/MILLARD 343. Dodd, Mead hardcover books
