A near fine copy. JISC can locate no copies under this imprint although they identify Hutchinson copies between 1894 and 1899, an edition published in 1922 (possibly this one, reissuing the 1894 edition), another Hutchinson edition in 1911 with 8 Papé plates, and various post-war editions. But no Shaw edition!
