I will stick with the US edition, but next time I'm in England, I will try to look up the Penguin edition and will certainly report on any differences. Michael, thank you for answering my query.

The redesign included new cover art and new typesetting and pagination. Until then, Penguin had simply reproduced the American typesetting. The 2010 Penguin continued a printing number sequence (tenth) and used a continuing ISBN. It included the three additional stories from the later American printings. Is there a textual difference between the US Vintage at 720 pages and the new British Penguin? From my brief examination of the two, I see no differences. (Unless some typesetting errors crept in.) If you know or learn of any differences, please let me know.

I wonder if you might know if there is any difference between the British (Penguin) edition of Collected Stories (816pp) and the US (Vintage) edition of The Stories (720pp): i.e., is the different extent merely due to different type face or does the UK edition include different material? Thank you for this very useful blog and the updates!
