‎THE MYSTERIOUS ISLAND . WRECKED IN THE AIR. Authorized Edition .‎

‎New York: Scribner 1875. Octavo pp. 1-4 1 2-110 111: map 112: ads fly leaves at front and rear 48 illustrations 1 full-page map original decorated brown cloth front panel stamped in gold and ruled in blind spine panel stamped in gold rear panel ruled in blind yellow endpapers. First authorized U.S. edition. The Henry L. Shepard 1874 piracy titled SHIPWRECKED IN THE AIR may have preceded this Scribner Armstrong edition by a few days. The Scribner Armstrong edition is dated 1875 on the title page but the book was issued in late October 1874. It was copyrighted 26 October 1874 and Scribner Armstrong filed two deposit copies on 31 October 1874. WRECKED IN THE AIR the first of three parts of THE MYSTERIOUS ISLAND was issued simultaneously in cloth and in pictorial wrappers the latter binding state now rarely encountered. WRECKED IN THE AIR the only part of THE MYSTERIOUS ISLAND issued by Scribner Armstrong in a two-column format perhaps utilizing the plates of the SCRIBNER'S MONTHLY MAGAZINE printing was rushed into print to compete with the 1874 Shepard piracy.

‎The Mysterious Island: Wrecked in the Air Authorized Edition.‎

‎New York: Scribner Armstrong & Co. 1875 New York: Scribner Armstrong & Co. 1875. First American Edition and First English Language Edition in Book Form Sampson Low Marston & Co. in England had serialized this first of three parts of Mysterious Island in March of 1874 in St. James Magazine. With a singular tall slender octavo format with 48 illustrations for this first edition of Wrecked in the Air Scribner Armstrong continued their bitter competition with Henry L. Shepard of Boston who announced on the same day October 27th 1874 under the title "Shipwrecked in the Air". This Scribner Armstrong edition however was the authorized one - letters of authorization from French true first edition pubisher Jules Hetzel and from Sampson Marston & Low are reproduced on the recto of the frontispiece - and Shepard could only counter with "Authentic Edition". Date of 1875 on the title page is correct with 1874 entry date noted on the verso of the title page - where Scribner also continues his battle with Shepard by cautioning the buyer against "any editions .which do not bear the imprint of Scribner Armstrong & Co.works published under other other imprints are PIRATED and cannot fail to be inferior in every particular.". Taves & Michaluk V013 appear to concur that the Shepard edition can be deduced to have been pirated from the Sampson Low serialized product. Nonetheless that Shepard edition which was well-made is a collectible edition in its own right. This Scribner's true authorized first edition meets specs not just for the Verne collection but as a souvenir of adventures in publishing as they were in the late nineteenth century. Note that the full three-part Mysterious Island tale was published somewhat later: Wrecked in the Air is the first part. Condition: Corners touched spines tips fraying small indications of soil and wear. Prior ownership by a long-term public service family in the Boston area: bookplate of Frederick M. Whitney on the front pastedown and the signature of Willis S. Whitney - dated December 6th of 1874 in Boston - on the flyleaf. Handsome bright and firm better than very good. See scans.
