[012815] Nietzsche, Friedrich. ALSO SPRACH ZARATHUSTRA. Leipzig: Naumann, 1893. 2. Auflage, Einzeldruck. Editor Peter Gast. (10), XXXV, [1], 472 pp. with portrait of N. bound in facing title (with protective tissue in between) and 4-page Brieffaksimile bound in after title. Contemporary green cloth with gilt lettering on spine. First and last pages browned as result of substances evidently in boards, progress now stopped however by loose insertion of buffering acidfree papers. The Auflagenbuch mentions the 3. Auflage as Einzeldrueck and the 2. as Werke. A later editor reversed this, and also made a note, that the 2nd edition would be without a Gast preface. Indeed the title of the present edition mentions on title: ..mit Portait und Brieffacsimile des Autors. On the title of the 3rd edition "...und ein Vorwort des Herausgebers" is added. The Vorwort was also sold seperately. As this is a private binding, the Vorwort can be added by the 1st owner from that source.To be clear: this is a copy with a Gast preface and without a Werke Titel. An advertisement of Naumann (see Hoffmann p749) states, that this volume was published in 1892. The Auflagenbuch (in which the Nietzsche-Archiv recorded all editions) states, that printing of 1000 copies of the 2nd and 1000 of the 3rd was finished on 9/10/1892, so that can very well be the case. It happened more often, that Naumann printed "on stock" later years on titles, and that in the end the edition was found in the bookstore before that year.
