- Data from Heritage Auctions and TreeRain Books. This is traditionally dated as "c. 1900". Heritage Auctions dates it as "c. 1910". TreeRain Books specifies this edition as 1905, but without specifying the source of that dating. Their copy (#414 of 1000) has been rebound in leather (not shown here), and it is possible that the binder included additional information about the date, although it is also possible that they were estimating the date and did not state that. Nevertheless, we list it here with their specified date.
