Daniel is correct in his reply to Dallas in regard
to the TUP edition of the Secret Doctrine: It IS a facsimile edition of
the original in all important respects. They did,
however, manually retouch the typeface, which in the 1888 edition was
flawed. A friend there once described the countless hours spent,
meticulously retouching a torn-apart original to make it
camera-ready. I know of no "editorializations which are not all
marked clearly" in that edition.
Since 1977 the TUP edition has been an identical facsimile
edition, just like ULT's. Previous to that (from '52? onward) there
was an original edition with a new typeface.
Best,
Nicholas
