The illustrated edition promised in the announcement for 

 the Christmas holidays of 1865. I have not seen. It was the 

 first edition " with nearly one hundred exquisite illustrations 

 by Lumley " and was " beautifully bound in quarto." The 

 copyright was registered as of 1866. At the Charles C. 

 Moreau sale, on April 16, 191 5, there was sold a complete set 

 of the engraver's proofs of the illustrations on India paper. 

 They were bound in a volume, half morocco, with a special 

 finely-executed title-page.
