Publication Details: Copenhagen: Gyldendalske Boghandels, 1890

Notes: Issued simultaneously in various colours of cloth - this a very attractive copy of the desirable red version. A hugely important work, selected by Carter & Muir for inclusion in 'Printing and the Mind of Man' - though with the qualification that 'it is virtually impossible to select any one play'. The text in Danish, and the edition preceded by one of 12 copies printed in London in Norwegian for the purposes of copyright.
