first appearance in Lippincott's Monthly Magazine, No.271, original printed wrappers, uncut, lower cover torn, elsewhere slightly chipped and frayed, slip-case, [Mason 81], 8vo, Philadelphia, J.B. Lippincott, July 1890. *** The first publication of Wilde's longest prose narrative which here comprises 13 chapters, later enlarged by a further 6 chapters and with many revisions or deletions (most notably references to the artist Whistler for fear of libel, and Dorian's date of birth, which was perceived as being too close to Wilde's own).
