Notes:
TP—Title page

CP—Copyright page (verso of title page)

Year Published—Year of publication but not necessarily the date copyrighted. For example, Bardelys was first published in 1906 but copyrighted in 1905. I am showing the publishing date.

Editions published before 1906 probably did not have a dust jacket, particularly if the book has an illustrated (decro) cover.

First book shown is the first issue. Most are UK firsts but some US.

First Houghton Mifflin book was Scaramouche in 1921, therefore HM editions of earlier books are rarely first US.
