Printing points, checked on this copy:
• True first is 1876 (Chatto & Windus / American Publishing Co.), NOT Harper & Brothers
• This is the Harper & Brothers edition illustrated by Worth Brehm, a 20th-century reprint
• Copyright page carries dates through 1917 (Clara Gabrilowitsch) — publication no earlier than 1917
• Harper letter/number code 'I-D' present on copyright page (a Harper date/printing code)
• Gift inscription dated Nov. 19, 1929 sets a latest-possible printing date
Shipping: FREE and tracked. The book is wrapped in bubble wrap and protected — never a bare mailer. From a smoke-free home. Message me for more photographs of this exact copy.
