THE SECOND EDITION, IN THREE STATES, TWO UNKNOWN TO MINKOFF. The contents of the English issue differ from those of the French: although the English issue uses the half-title, title, dedication and text of pp.I-III and pp.1-[70] of the French issue, the English issue also contains a leaf bearing an introduction signed 'C.J.A.' tipped onto the verso of the dedication and a half-tone portrait frontispiece tipped in following the title. Furthermore, only the English issue in boards contains the Daniel-Girard frontispiece, which is absent from the English issue in wrappers. The binding of the English issue in boards is that of the French issue, with the addition of the lines 'THE POETRY PUBLISHING Co., , HAVEN ROAD, EXETER. , AND AT LONDON' at the foot of the upper board, while the English issue in wrappers bears the same text on the spine and upper wrapper as the English issue in boards, with the addition of the words 'IMPRIMERIE , CH. HéRISSEY , éVREUX' on the lower wrapper, suggesting that the English wrappers issue was bound in France. (3)
