The MS was tipped into the front of volume 20 (Tom Sawyer Abroad and Tom Sawyer, Detective and Other Stories etc. etc.) of the American Publishing Company’s Autograph Edition of Mark Twain’s Works, “limited to Five Hundred and Twelve Copies, of which this is No. 88.” This document and ten others pasted into other volumes of the same set of books originally came from the American Publishing Company archives in 1899, the year of publication. The set was offered for sale by Bonhams, 25 July 2013, lot 3269, and purchased by CU-MARK.
