The History of Tom Jones, a Foundling

No book-club edition exists for a 1749 imprint. Documented reprint tells: (1) any second/third/fourth 1749 Millar edition — identified by the corrected errata, the "who" catchword at Vol. I p. 21, and B5 signed in Vol. VI — these are the single most common thing mistaken for the first; (2) 19th-century multi-volume sets and the standard Victorian illustrated editions (Cruikshank and successors); (3) 20th-century subscription and press reprints — Limited Editions Club / Heritage Press, Folio Society, Franklin Library — identifiable by modern paper, publisher's decorated cloth or leatherette, a colophon leaf, and a 20th-century copyright notice. A genuine 1749 Millar set has no copyright page; it will be in contemporary calf or a later fine binding.
