Note: New York and London The Authors and Newspapers Association --both 1906 title pages cited below Concerning E. F. Benson, The House of Defence (1906): HathiTrust Digital Library (record 000472489) provides full view of two copies from Harvard University whose title pages are not identical. Instead title pages are specific to exclusive sale in Hartford CT by G. Fox & Co. and exclusive sale in New York and Philadelphia by John Wanamaker. Both copies, t.p. verso: "Printed and bound by the Manhattan Press, New York." "NOTICE TO PURCHASER" (first printed page of HU copies; view one at HathiTrust) sets other restrictions. HathiTrust appears to catalogue a copy that is specific to Woodbury Book Co. in Danville IL; perhaps from a University of Michigan record of its copy from UM (which lacks all front leaves), or from WorldCat record OCLC 9240162. One dealer at ABEbooks reports (quote): Printed publisher's statement to front pastedown; this copy with over-printed slug on title page: "L.F. Issing / Special Edition / For sale exclusively by us in Danbury, Conn.". Library of Congress record LCCN 06-029529, which links HathiTrust, reports: "Toronto, McLeod & Allen; New York, London, The Authors and newspapers association, c1906."
