The complete set eventually included 36 volumes; however variations appeared in the printing over the years. Text published in two volumes in earlier printings was combined into single volumes to save money on the part of the publishers. The published letters of Rudyard Kipling 2004 indicate that Kipling often disapproved of the cost-saving measures of Scribner’s preferring that later printings kept the same numeration of the volumes as the earlier ones.
