The most desirable collected edition The Sussex Edition number 72 of 525 sets only signed by the author in the first volume and containing two volumes of previously uncollected prose. Published after Kipling's death on 18 January 1936 this magnificent posthumous edition saw a small limitation and became even rarer following the destruction of many unsold sheets during the German bombing of London.
