Market value

What decides the price

Publisher's practice

How Hogarth Press marked its first editions

  • Hogarth Press first editions carry no first edition statement. Second and later impressions or editions are identified on the title page, the verso, or both, so a copy with no later-impression note is the one to look for.

Read the full guide to Hogarth Press first editions, decade by decade, and check your copy's copyright page against it. Our number line decoder reads the printing from the row of numbers.
