The title page of the copy in my hands does not list a date and lists only Boston under D. C. HEATH AND COMPANY. The one photo I have seen of another title page of this edition lists a number of other cities but still has no date. The copyright page lists 1907, 1910, 1926 by D.C. Heath and C., with the number 516 in very small font underneath. This copy has no dust jacket. 343 pages, with endpapers a chart "Tabular View of Principal Rules" that describes rules and where they are to be found in the text.
