HDL provides full views of apparent 1st, 5th, 7th, 8th printings (see Title Reference), all with original cover. The apparent 1st printing from Harvard U (identical except copyright page?) shows: -- front cover plain green cloth with black lettering -- title page undated (publ date 1922-08-25 is stated in later printings) -- Foreword, p.vii, signed, evidently for the American ed. -- Contents, p.ix, shows 6 numbered Tales; multi-part Prologue and Epilogue; Prelude, 5 numbered Interludes, and multi-part Postlude -- Introduction, xi-xvii, unsigned/dated, apparently original -- Martin Pippin in the Apple-Orchard, p1-270 -- no printer statement
The source copy from Harvard U is 1st printing apparently, as t.p. verso gives only the copyright date where others list 5, 7, and 8 printing dates.
