This morning's post brought me a copy of S&A with the Clifford Webb illustrations. It states that it is the 'NEW ILLUSTRATED EDITION/1931' and appears to follow all the points in Hammond's Bibliography, pp. 81-2 except for one. Hammond states, p.82, that there is an emendation on p.210 where 'centre-board' becomes 'centre-board case'. The copy which has just arrived has this emendation on p.209. I've checked in Hammond's Addenda & Corrigenda but there is no correction there. Can anyone with a copy of the true first of S&A with the Clifford Webb illustrations shine any light on this?
