* Andrews issued this subject in an edition of fifty (plus six proofs) in 1930. In August 1932, a second edition was printed for the American market and a third edition was planned for sale in Australia in 1936 but the blocks were too worn by then to yield more than twenty of the intended sixty impressions. This print can therefore be dated to August 1932.
