Notes:

None of Mr. Cabell's previous bibliographers have mentioned lettered small paper presentation copies of this title. However, we have seen two copies lettered "A" and "X", and we've also seen internet reports of two other lettered copies. On that basis, we accept it as a valid issue of the edition.
