Notes:The Melbourne Leader (26 May 1883) informed readers that Philiberta had been purchased by Messrs Ward Lock & Co, London. Again on 1 December 1883 the same paper reported that the prize-winning novel had been 'added by Messrs Ward, Lock & Co to their Library of Select Fiction.' The novel would have been published after it had run its course as a 27-part serial (8 July 1882). The British Library Catalogue gives the date for Philiberta as [1883]; the English Catalogue of Books as 1883. Philiberta is also listed in 'Victorian Yellowbacks & Paperbacks 1849-1905', by Chester Topp, Vol. IV, which lists Ward, Lock publications, and notes that the novel was advertised for sale in The Athenaeum on 15 September 1883.

- Publisher: Ward, Lock
.-
Reprinted: 1890-1897 The probability of this being a reprint is supported by the fact that Ward and Lock, publishers, became Ward, Lock, Bowden and Co. as listed on t.p.; that is, after the early 1890s. 'Special Australian edition' (back cover).
