The first edition comprised a print run of 250 copies, nearly all of which Whistler reputedly destroyed. This edition also comprised a similarly small print-run, and has a couple of corrections, firstly the over-printing of 'by' between 'kindly' and 'their owners', and secondly, under 'Moral' at the end, the rubbed-stamped attribution of 'Illustrated London News'. Subsequent editions had further text to pp.30-1, here blank. Scarce, especially in such condition.

Second edition; small 4to (c. 195 x 150 mm); final p. and upper wrapper with butterfly motif; original stapled brown wrappers, a near fine copy.
