Jurgen: A Comedy of Justice

US first, confirmed: Robert M. McBride & Co., New York, 1919 — off the presses 27 September 1919 — is the true first. No simultaneous or earlier UK edition is recorded in the sources consulted; the British issue followed. The suppression is precisely why the points matter rather than being mere trivia: on 14 January 1920 the New York Society for the Suppression of Vice seized the plates, copies and sheets at McBride's offices and sale was banned for roughly two years, so surviving first-printing sheets are the target and the later printings from the same setting are the trap the census note flags.
