Largely Scottish in focus, Stevenson’s offerings include a wealth of limited editions, with descriptions of thick paper copies, uncut edges and fine copies abounding. The final three pages list the Bannatyne Club collection, which includes the rare catalogue of the printed works, of which only forty copies were issued.

Rare; COPAC locates a single copy, at Manchester Public Libraries, OCLC adds no further.
