In 1909 publisher Walter Neale began issuing individual volumes in the 12-volume set "The Collected Works of Ambrose Bierce". Volume 7, "The Devil's Dictionary", was published in 1911. Unlike most publishers, who sell "individual" volumes of a published work, Neale focused on selling "complete sets" of the 12-volume "Works". Neale later claimed that he printed and sold 1,250 sets (250 numbered fully leatherbound sets, the first volume of each set signed by Bierce; a small number of sets half-bound in Morocco leather; and the bulk as sets of clothbound hardcovers). However, Neale's surviving royalty statements to Bierce for "The Collected Works" tell a different story: Bierce was paid for sales of 57 fully leatherbound 12-volume sets, 8 half-Morocco sets, and approximately 164 clothbound hardback sets.
