New Grub Street
George Gissing · Smith, Elder & Co. (London) · 1891
Three-deckers of 1891 went overwhelmingly to the circulating libraries, so surviving copies are frequently ex-Mudie's or otherwise ex-library and rebound; original cloth in three volumes with half-titles intact is the thing actually being identified, and New Grub Street was the first of Gissing's books to reach a second impression, so a stated later impression is a real possibility. One-volume reprints and modern critical editions (Penguin, Oxford World's Classics, Broadview) separate by imprint. No book-club tells were documented in the sources consulted.
