Description
1903. London: William Heinemann, 1903. 2 pp preliminary ads plus 32 pp undated ads. Original grey cloth with life preserver in gilt. First Edition, which consisted of 1500 copies for the domestic market plus 1500 for the colonial market (same binding, different preliminaries). In addition to the title tale, the "other stories" are "Amy Foster," "Falk" and "To-morrow." "Typhoon" had been published in New York in 1902, prior to Conrad's final revisions that are reflected in the text of the English edition; the other three appear in book form for the first time here. This is a "pure" domestic copy, with the domestic half-title and title leaves; demand from British booksellers was so great that the binder subsequently had to create "hybrid" copies, transferring colonial copies to the domestic market and back again. It is in Supino's binding "A" (with a cover height of 195mm , only the top edge trimmed, and with 110mm between "Conrad" and "Heinemann" on the spine); this copy includes the 32-page ad catalogue that is present in some but not all copies. This volume is in very good-plus condition (minor wear at the spine ends, endpapers cracked at the gutters). Supino A8.14.0 (this copy); Cagle A8b(1). Provenance: bookplate of William Marchbank (heraldry of Clan Majoribanks), discreet bookplate of Conrad bibliographer David J. Supino.
