"This text of Adventures of Huckleberry Finn has been faithfully typeset from the text established by Victor Fischer for the edition he is preparing with Walter Blair for the Works and papers of Mark Twain, to be published ... by the University of California Press"--P. 415. Fischer and Blair attempt, using the extant portions of the author's final manuscript, to correct errors and omissions found in the 1st edition of 1885. The text volume and the portfolio, containing an extra suite of all of Barry Moser's wood engravings comprising the ill. and decoration in the text, printed 1 ill. per sheet, are issued together in a case.
