The Room in the Tower and Other Stories

The copyright page reads 'Published 1912' and carries 'Copyright in the United States of America, 1912, by E. F. Benson'; the title page imprint reads Mills & Boon, Limited, 49 Rupert Street, London W. Critically, 'Published 1912' alone is NOT sufficient — the Mills & Boon second edition retains the identical 'Published 1912' line and adds 'Second Edition' to the title page, so the first printing point is the presence of 'Published 1912' together with the ABSENCE of any edition statement
