I received the following message.

If you didn't know already, I note that July 21 marks the 80th
anniversary of the publishing of Swallows & Amazons.
I picked that up from Roger Wardale's "In Search of Swallows &
Amazons", page 87, last paragraph, which notes the publication date as
July 21, 1930. It was priced at 7/6 and the print run was 2,000
copies.
