The project was then taken over by Joyce's German publisher Rhein-Verlag who held a competition to find a translator for Ulysses. The competition was won by Georg Goyert and in August 1926 he met with Joyce in Ostend to revise the text. The publication was successful and on 19 November Joyce sent a postcard to Claud W. Sykes stating that 'The edition was sold out in 3 weeks' J. Joyce op. cit. III p.167. The limited edition of 1000 copies for sale was issued in a half morocco binding as here and in green wrappers; as Slocum and Cahoon note 'The emphasis on the private nature of the publication and the strict limitation of copies was caused by some fear . that Ulysses might be subject to censorship'. This was the first time Ulysses was translated into another language. A French edition followed in 1929.The Quentin Keyes copy sold at Christies in 2004 for 4200 pounds. Slocum and Cahoon D-45.2.".
