According to Streeter, "though these Laws have the imprint date 1808 and are No. 1 in the American Imprints Inventory for Missouri, a statement on p. 373 of Frederick Bates, Secretary of Louisiana, regarding the Laws, is dated 29 April 1809."

Lacking title and 2 leaves, Ccc2 and Hhh3, with title in facsimile bound in and xerox facsimiles of other two leaves laid in (leaf S2 with major paper flaw affecting marginal notes and a bit of the main text, some light dampstaining and spotting). Modern sienna morocco by Sangorski and Sutcliffe. Provenance: marginalia indicating which laws had been repealed (some trimmed) – John Fletcher Darby (1835-1841, fourth mayor of St Louis and Missouri congressman; inscription on interior page).
