"The first copies of this edition wre printed on unintentionally flimsy quality paper. A few hundred of these were sold before they could be recalled. A new print run on higher quality paper was rushed out. The two issues can be distinguished by the fact that the former has an overall thickness, including covers, of about 33-34mm, while the latter, again including covers, is notably wider at about 45mm.Falkus expressed his contempt for the first issue by referring to it as 'The Bronco Edition,' referring to a well-known brand of cheap toilet tissue." (Beazley and Hatton in "The Books of Fred Buller," Classic Angling, May 2006). Not nearly as bad as the authors made out - actually 32mm in thickness.
