Hey kingricefan ! Don't get too sick of me-but I have another question for you. I've seen SK books for sale online described as first edition, fifth printing, etc. How do you differentiate between a first edition, first printing and a first edition subsequent printing?! :umm:

Whatever the lowest number on the number line is (on the copyright page) tells you what printing it is. Example: if the number line's lowest number is a '3', then it is a First Edition Third Printing. Don't be afraid/ashamed to ask questions- it's what I'm here for. Well, that and to make Scott's life a living H*ll.....
