1916rif. 5554New York: B.W. Huebsch 1916. First Edition. Joyce's autobiographical first novel first serialized in 25 installments in The Egoist between February 2 1914 and September 1 1915 by his great patron Harriet Shaw Weaver. As for the book publication she was unsuccessful at finding an English printer willing to assume the responsibility of setting the text - seven of them refused to do it all on moral grounds. "Under English law unlike American the printing of immoral writings is as actionable as their publication" Slocum & Cahoon p.20. Weaver sent a copy of her Egoist serialization to New York bookseller Edmond Byrne Hackett who in turn contacted B.W. Huebsch who undertook the publication of Portrait just as he had for Dubliners several weeks earlier. ".on 16 June an emblematic date for Joyce Benjamin Huebsch wrote to Miss Weaver with his proposal: publication of the complete novel with sheets printed in the US going to the English publisher under joint imprints the costs being shared.He was anxious he said to see Joyce properly launched in America and Pound recommended that Huebsch's offer be accepted" Bowker Gordon. James Joyce: A New Biography p.226. Through his alter ego Stephen Dedalus Joyce "describes his spiritual journey through his Jesuit education and petty bourgeois Dublin to forge through 'silence exile and cunning' the 'uncreated conscience of his race'.A landmark in sensibility the prose moves forward in complexity from the child's sensations at the beginning to the adolescent subtleties at the end" Connolly 26. The number of copies of the first printing is unknown but a second was published in April 1917 followed by three additional printings 1918-1922 before Huebsch merged his publishing house with the Viking Press. We know of no documented presentation copies of the American edition of Portrait; the present copy likely one of a very few copies with distinguished provenance not already in institutional hands was one of Benjamin Huebsch's own retained copies left to his son Ian Oscar Huebsch then passed by inheritance to a family friend.

Second printing April 1917 of the American edition the first edition was published in December 1916 preceding the English edition. Octavo. 299pp. Blue cloth stamped in blind and gilt. Contemporary bookplate of Walter A. Donnelly on the front pastedown and his ownership signature on the front fly else very near fine in attractive very good or better second printing dustjacket with several old internal tape repairs mostly at the folds and not visible on the outside. The text of the second printing jacket appears to be identical to the text of the first printing although laid out slightly differently with "Second printing" overstamped in red on the front panel. Joyce's landmark first novel. Huebsch printed 1250 sets of sheets for the first edition selling 500 sets to England for the Egoist Press edition which was published later thus the true first edition in this case the American edition preceded the English was 750 copies. We are unaware of the number of copies in the second printing but it was likely to have been quite small perhaps as few as 500 copies. Although the first edition is rare in jacket we've at least seen a few jacketed copies. This is the first copy we've seen of the second printing in the appropriate jacket. B.W. Huebsch hardcover
