It is my understanding that printed sheets from the 3rd New York printing were shipped to London England in January of 1930 resulting in the first British edition. Lowe and Brydone Ltd of London printed the English edition for Jonathan Cape so that the 1st British edition has a British title page bound with American sheets. (source for this escapes me at the moment – if anyone has details please advise – wn@wordlessnovels.com)
