Perhaps it's "copyright 1923" (and not "printed 1923")?  At any rate, 
it's probably the very same book as my "printing 59" edition (which 
also says "copyright renewed 1951 by Arthur Machen".  The number of 
pages is the same, and yes I find it rather helpful!  It's good to use 
both a newer grammar such as Mounce's, and an old one like Machen's...

AMG Publishers has an answer key to the book for a few dollars.  I'm 
not sure if it's still in print, but I'm sure you can find it 
somewhere.  The following also seems to be an answer key with further 
supplementary material (I don't have a copy):  New Testament Greek 
Beginnings, by David L. Thompson, ISBN#0024206504.
