As displayed April 2020 there are five blank page-images between frontispiece (image 3) and title page, which is the first printed page. -- Illustrations, p[vii], lists 2 (frontis. and one facing p98) -- Introduction, p.ix-[xii] -- stories span p1-[215] (last page unnumbered) -- publisher advertisements, p[217-20] (books by four others including Doyle, one page each) The introduction evidently acknowledges the example of Kipling, the Genius; first daunting, later inspirational and instructive, for Robertson, the Man.
