Ballet Shoes

The UK Dent 1936 edition is the true first. The first American edition (New York: Random House, 1937) is a separately collected book rather than a simple reprint: it was newly illustrated by Richard Floethe (nineteen illustrations plus title-page and jacket drawings), designed by Evelyn Harter, collates 303 pages, and states "Copyright, 1937, by Random House, Inc." Both editions are collected; the Dent holds priority and the Random House is the American first only.
