The Tale of Jemima Puddle-Duck

Later printings are dated later on the title page or are undated, so the 1908 date at the title-page foot and at the colophon is the first screen. Endpaper designs were revised across the life of the series, so a later endpaper design in an otherwise correct copy indicates a later impression or a made-up/rebound copy — endpapers and boards should agree with the Quinby Plate IV design for a 1908 copy. Warne reprinted the tales continuously through the twentieth century, and later Warne printings are "first thus" at best.
