* The Supreme Court of the United States
was organized in 1789 (1 Statutes at Large 73-93). Until 1874 its
reports were cited by name of the court reporter. Although the
present tendency is to adopt the numerical system of citation, it
has been the practice to cite the reports in the first ninety
volumes by the name of the reporter. Volumes 91 to 107 (1875-1882)
are designated “1 to 17 Otto” and the United States Reports 91-107.
After volume 107 the name of the reporter is carried on the title
page but the volumes are not cited by name. Until 1922 the official
reports were published under contract with private publishers. Since
that time the printing has been done by the Government Office.
Individual volumes of this title are available as well as standing
orders for future volumes as published. Most recent volumes
published: 525 $68; 526 $65; 527 $65; 528 $67; 529 $68; 530 $70; 531

* “The distinctive features of the
Lawyers Edition are first its completeness, since it reprints every
case in all of the original reports (U.S. Reports vols. 1-351), and
prints some that were omitted from them; second, the retention, in
most cases, of summaries of the arguments of counsel; third, the
addition of extensive annotations; fourth, retention of original
page numbering in brackets, e.g. (*282), so that the same citations
serve for them and for the original reports; fifth, uniformity in
style of printing throughout the entire series, which is not the
fact with the original reports; and sixth, minimum shelf space
required...” Hicks, Materials and Methods of Legal Research. 3d
rev. ed. 141. See illustration below.
