The first UK edition appeared in June 1907 under the title Arsene Lupin, Gentleman Burglar, preceding this US edition by four months. The ninth story, titled 'Sherlock Holmes Arrives too Late' in the UK edition, sparked a dispute with the lawyers of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Consequently, in this and subsequent editions, the story's title was altered to 'Holmlock Shears Arrives too Late'.This translation is by Alexander Texeira de Mattos.
