It then contained 332 pages without illustrations. With various additions and alterations it was reprinted in England seventeen times, to a total of more than fifty thousand copies. Other impressions were printed in the United States of America. In October 1928 was issued an enlarged edition (illustrated by Albert Rutherston) twice reprinted. This in turn was enlarged, in October 1930, and redecorated by T. L. Poulton. In October 1936 a new series of decorations were made by John Dronsfield, and in 1939 an edition was issued decorated by Edward Bawden. The present edition is being issued as a Service Edition, without any decorations. The total sales of all editions exceed two hundred thousand copies.'
