I'm thinking of producing one of these, based on dismantling a facsimile first.
So far as I am aware, the page numbering is the same from first impression to second impression, despite the presence of different plates, so would need
1. 2nd impression dust jacket (done) - possibly printed colour laser, rather than inkjet
2. Facsimile first page block, removed from boards
3. existing boards
4. Printed plates (inkjet on slightly glossy paper probably most practical)
5. Reprinted end papers/maps as existing ones would be destroyed.
6. Reprinted title page
7. Reprinted list of illustrations
8. Possible replacements of other pages with minor differences
Seems like a pretty easy project, unless I'm missing something (Trotter?)
