Notes on France's The Queen Pedauque

Notes on France's The Queen Pedauque

The "First Printing" statement was left on the copyright page throughout the B&L era. A true first printing has a C10 catalog in the back of the book. Copies in both #2 and #3 bindings have the first slug along with a C11 catalog. The first statement was removed when the ML updated the title/copyright page (#4 binding and a C13 catalog in the back).

The C9 catalog lists this title using the original long form name of At the Sign of the Reine Pedauque, however no copy of this title has been seen with a C9 catalog (nor with this long title).
