Abstract: The current study on the edition of Shi Tong includes the catalogues of Shanghai Library and other libraries, book-type catalogues such as Catalogue of Chinese Ancient Rare Books, Illustrated Catalogue on Engraving of the Ming Dynasty, and the postscript notes written by Huang Pilie and Gu Qianli and other related research works. This paper has sorted the storage and affiliation of various editions of these books. There are still many problems to be studied, such as the loss and mistakes existed on the description and identification of editions and the relationship between various editions.
