Karol Szymanowski: Gesamtausgabe, Serie A, Bd.1d (pp.5-149)
Krakow: Polskie Wydawnictwo Muzyczne, 1954. Plate PWM 832.URTEXT EDITION
This is an urtext/critical/scholarly/scientific edition (or a simple re-engraving). Any commentary or critical apparatus, if protected by copyright, should not be included in the scan(s) available here.
In Canada, new editions/re-engravings of public domain works (when not including new original material) should be in the public domain due to failing to meet the threshold of originality. In most European Union countries, these editions (except new original material) are generally protected for no more than 25 years from publication (30 years in Poland), and only if the edition is published after the copyrights of the original creator(s) have expired. In the United States, copyright can only apply to new creative work, and the re-engraving of a public domain piece (not including new additions of creative material) should not qualify for a new copyright, despite copyright claims (which properly would only apply to new material).
You may need to check the publication date and details of the work's first publication in order to determine the work's copyright status, especially for the United States, as the copyright on the original work may not have expired.

Navigation etc.
The first version of 1909-10 no longer exists (I think? -- ES). It is assumed that it was primarily reorchestrated in 1927-36, but the revision may have been substantially more extensive (for all one knows in the absence of a basis of comparison, of course.)
