Default Plymouth Publishing Company, New York

I have a copy of "The Complete Works of Edgar Allan Poe", Plymouth Publishing
Company, New York, "Midnight Edition", no date, no copyright information of any
kind, 4 1/2 x 6 1/4 inches, flexible red textured faux leather boards,
frontispiece with tissue, printed on Nelson india paper, three sections, each
with multiple parts, in one volume, gilt top edge, gilt on spine and front board.

I am trying to determine when it was published. So far I can find nothing on
the Plymouth Publishing Company in New York. I found what I think was a false
lead about an entity of that name in Plymouth, Pennsylvania in the 1860s. The
words "Midnight Edition" express to me that this was a pirate publication, so
maybe there is not a lot of information about the company (though I suppose with
Poe, maybe it just means it will scare you to read it late at night). AB
Bookman's list does not mention the company either.

Any information would be welcome.
