Notes:
- No edition found 2017-04-29 in automated search (tempest rackham) of multiple US newspapers 1926. Coverage in UK newspapers generally supports the description in notes below, with Rackham as the artist. See the Heinemann edition.
- "Limited to 520 copies, numbered and signed by the artist. Of these, nos. 1 to 260 are for sale in Great Britain and Ireland, and nos. 261-520 in the United States of America". This edition is thus copies 261-520; the US copies were published by Heinemann.
- Frontispiece & 20 mounted color plates and 25 b&w drawings by Rackham. [One extra plate in the deluxe, or 21, per advertisement by UK publisher Heinemann]
- Attached photo shows dj (left) and hard cover (right). This photo is of the Heinemann edition, but the DJ front of the Doubleday edition is the same. The two editions have different back covers, and the Doubleday might be different on the boards. (The 1926 trade edition, at least, had only the text and not the mermaid.)
- Data from Mugwump Books (New York) -- as illustrated by Mary Grabhorn and WorldCat -- as illustrated by Arthur Rackham
