The Ghost Pirates

No book-club issue is documented for the 1909 Stanley Paul edition. The later-issue hazards are twentieth-century specialty-press and paperback reprints: any copy with a jacket bearing an ISBN, or lacking the Sime frontispiece and the 12 pages of Stanley Paul advertisements, is not the 1909 first. Green- and blue-cloth copies are genuine first-edition sheets in variant or later bindings, not reprints — do not reject them, but record the binding.
