Printed on the verso of the half-title is the statement of limitation ('one thousand copies, numbered and signed by the Artist'). Marcie Muir notes that 'Some copies ... have been seen, unsigned and bound in a cheaper binding with col[our] instead of giltlettering &c., suggesting that they may have been bound up later and sold as remainders'. We have handled several of these variants, unsigned, some numbered, some unnumbered. Some of these copies did not have a gilt top edge; some did not have captions on the tissue-guards. In any event, a subscriber's copy (we purchased it from a family descendant) is clearly a desirable rarity: as Ida Rentoul Outhwaite put it so eloquently, 'The Subscribers are the god-parents of the Fairies in this Book' (see page [162]).
