"The Phantom Rickshaw and other tales by Rudyard Kipling
Rudyard Kipling
Hardcover
(Donohue & Henneberry, Jan. 1, 1899)
Several hours by philhuber Books in google searchs yeilded interesting information: This book is credited as written in 1888 and the author, Kipling had negotiated American rights to its' printing with Lovell & Co., N.Y.. Unexpected to Kipling, plates were sold to various printers who did their own first editions. The 'real' 1st was by Rand M'Nally 1890. This book has no dating at all (typical of many English publishers). The description of the Origional 1988 first edition sound very much identical to this copy for sale. But the publisher added their street address and research shows they only published from that address in 1889. Further research may prove otherwise but Donohue & Henneberry only existed for a few years and certainly NOT in 1888.
