The two hundred and seventy-one issues were collected in two volumes, with prefatory material and indexes, along with general title pages bearing the title: 'The lucubrations of Isaac Bickerstaff Esq;' and the imprint: London : printed: and sold by John Morphew, near Stationers-Hall; the volumes are dated 1710 and 1711 respectively.

Imprint may vary; some title pages read: "by J. Morphew"; individual issues also exist in several states, some lacking colophons.
At foot of volume II title page: Note, the bookbinder is desired to place the index after Tatler, number 271. which ends the second volume in folio.
Steele and Addison were no longer associated with 'The Tatler after number 271; John Morphew continued the publication, and was joined by William Harrison as editor from number 285-330 (3 Feb.-19 May 1711).
Rival publications were printed by John Baker, two issues only: number "272-273", and by Ann Baldwin. Her publication was edited by William Harrison (a protege of Jonathan Swift), and ran for six issues, number 1-6 (13 Jan.-3 Feb. 1711), before he began to edit Morphew's continuation. Cf. McLeod.
