The E-Sylum: Volume 3, Number 21, May 21, 2000, Article 7 FINAL WORDS ON SCHJOTH In response to Mike Jones' last question, Jørgen Sømod of Denmark writes: "First edition of Schjöth published in Oslo 1929 I remember as dark gray paper bound." George Kolbe writes: "I've handled a couple of dozen or so original 1929 editions of Schjoth over the years but all I recall were bound in dark red (i.e. crimson) cloth, with distinctive gilt lettering [actually, I have a recollection of having seen one in wrappers but that may be a figment of my imagination]. I have seen multiple copies of two different bindings, and some copies are taller than others, suggesting that the work may have been bound in batches. Lockhart's 1915 catalogue of his collection of Chinese copper coins was issued "with flimsy paper covers" though, predictably, it is usually encountered in a private binding."
