Bambi (Bambi: Eine Lebensgeschichte aus dem Walde)

Original-language precedence, and the census claim is correct: the German Ullstein (Berlin) 1923 is the true first. Both English editions are translations and both are collected in their own right, so both should be named. Simon & Schuster (New York, 1928) precedes Jonathan Cape (London, 1928), which makes the Simon & Schuster the first edition in English and the Cape the first UK edition; the Chambers translation and Galsworthy foreword are common to both. Anglophone catalogues and dealers very frequently list the 1928 Simon & Schuster as "the first edition" of Bambi — that is a first-in-English, not the true first, and it is the standard trap on this title.
