All the first impression issue points are listed nothing of bibliographical importance has been left out. Hopefully it will help with our most frequently asked question: how can I tell if my book is a first edition ? Particular care should be taken to ensure that jackets do not carry later titles. In all cases the UK edition precedes the US. There is also a problem with price clipped dustwrappers on US editions possibly being from book clubs. It is also worth mentioning that a first edition is the first appearance of the book in the specified country. Whatever some people may like to suggest anything published in the same country subsequently is a reprint. If you are looking to buy or sell such books then our rare book dealers section may be of some assistance. You may also Like Len Deighton John Le Carre Modesty Blaise
