yes, integrate the publication records 

copy-paste from P582914

Year: 1895-11-27

Pages: viii+f171+[24]

Notes:
1st printing, presumed (novel reviewed 1895-12 but <a href="http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/pl.cgi?279381">one 1896 publication per title page</a> may be the 1st printing)

  • Some information from The Whole Science Fiction Data Base No. 3 and ABEbooks.
  • Tuck lists the first printing as 1896, others 1895
  • Reginald1: 00829.
  • Bleiler The Guide to Supernatural Fiction: 89.
  • $1.00 reported somewhere
  • OCLC: <a href="http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/814233">814233</a>.
  • Publ date and price from advertisement by the publisher N-Y Tribune 1895-11-27 p8 "Published To-Day by Harper Brothers" (four listed); "16mo. Cloth, Ornamental, $1.25"

-- (c) 1895 per copyright page of numerous printings with various title page dates or none -- Briefly reviewed Det. Free Press 1895-12-02 p3, SL Post-Dispatch 1895-12-15 p25, Chi. Tribune 1895-12-28 p10; no others found in search of multiple newspapers online

Yet the 1st printing may state 1896 on the title page; ie, some 1896 ed. may be the 1st ed., 1st printing. HathiTrust Digital Library (HDL) holds five copies as 1896 (<a href="https://catalog.hathitrust.org/Record/001027045">HDL catalog record</a>), none 1895. Among them the first and last title pages state 1896; the others, all from Harvard University, t.p. state no date. All three appear to be later printings. (The 2nd and 4th as listed at HDL 2016-08-30 contain, p[vii], only 8 plates which do not include the favorite illustration of one 1895 reviewer. The 3rd and 4th contain, p173 and copyright page respectively, lists that include this title and its first sequel, both $1.25.)

[24] represents the frontispiece and 23 plates not included in the pagination--those 24 leaves contained, and listed p[vii]-viii in the 1st, 3rd, 5th of five HDL copies as listed 2016-08-30. It is not certain that any of these is a copy of the 1st printing, discussed above.
