"Three hundred copies of this book, numbered 1 to 300, have been printed... There are besides fourteen copies on Hodgkinson's hand-made blue-laid paper, finely bound, lettered A to N. All copies have been signed by the editors"--Verso of half title.
The wording of the limitation statement is altered to describe the blue-laid paper copies first for those of that issue.
In most copies the t.p. has a three-line quotation from Rolfe between the statement of authorship and imprint. In copies numbered 261-292, inclusive, the quotation has been replaced with a picture of a raven. Cf. Woolf, C. Rolfe (2nd ed.) p. 131.
