This file is part of the Sibley Mirroring Project. Advertisement on last page suggests a reprint after 1928 (it lists works by Erwin Lendvai up to Op.21, published in 1929.) First page of violin 1 part contains a faint engraver notice, possibly for C.G. Röder.

Prague: Státní nakladatelství krásné hudby, literatury a umení (SNKHLU), 1956. Plate H 1835.URTEXT EDITION
This "urtext" or "scholarly" (scientific) edition is in the public domain because it was published at least 25 years ago for most of the EU (20 years ago in Italy, 30 years ago in Poland) over 25 years ago for the former USSR. Such editions are also public domain in Canada because they fail to meet the minimum 'threshold of originality' to qualify for copyright as an 'adaptation'. They may not be public domain elsewhere. More information about this can be found here.

Kurt Honolka's Dvořák gives date of publication 1890 (against 1888 in HMB) but 1876 for date of composition (which is probably right...)
