Author: Barry Pain
Date: 1901-00-00
Publisher: Grant Richards
Price:
1/6^?Prior to decimilisation (1968-1971), UK books were priced in shillings, or shillings and pence, where 20 shillings equals one pound and 12 old pence equals one shilling. Shillings were indicated with a variety of suffixes, e.g. 3s, 3', 3", 3/ all mean 3 shillings. Any number after that is additional pence, usually 6 (half a shilling) but sometimes 3 or 9 (a quarter of a shilling or three-quarters of a shilling).
Pages: 192
Format:
tp^?Trade paperback. Any softcover book which is at least 7.25" (or 19 cm) tall, or at least 4.5" (11.5 cm) wide/deep.
Type: COLLECTION
Notes: Tuck is the source for the price, and also mentions that it is limited to 250 copies. However, an ad in a scan of the hardcover edition gives the price of the limited editions as 5/-. It appears that Tuck has conflated the limited and trade paperback editions.
