Hi There,
This is my first time on the site. I've bought some collins' clear-type press austens ('P&P', 'sense & sensibility' and 'northanger abbey and persuasion'). I am having a hard time trying to find out their publishing date. They are bound in faux maroon/red leather with a ribbon book marker, illustrations by D.C. Eyles. The Northhanger and Persuaion (two vol. in one) has an introduction by R. Brimley Johnson.
Does any one have any tips on how to find publishing dates (I've Googled to no avail)?
Thanks heaps

I think you may have some difficulty in being exact. There was a Collins edition in 1971 of the NA/Persuasion pairing and the Brimley Johnson intro. But I don't know if it corresponds to your description - I just it on abebooks.com . But that pairing and intro has been used many times over, eg in the Everyman library stretching back to 1906
