IPDJ catalogue MFN 365. Publication: Paris : C. Marpon et E. Flammarion, [1885]. Physical description: [5], VII, VII, 325 p. : il. ; 19 cm. IPDJ author line also mentions a preface by Aurelien Scholl; this is contributory material rather than primary authorship.
Gelli describes the luxurious 1885 large-format issue of L'art du duel and several later Nouvelle edition states. The older Thimm-derived 1884 shell was merged away and is preserved only as a secondary date-conflict note, while the direct IPDJ 1885 witness remains canonical. Edition family corrected and consolidated in phase 84.
