PREFATORY NOTE: Why no EIGHTH edition? Consider our guide to be a sponge, soaking up the available information on the subject. Eventually, there will be so little new content that to justify a new edition would require a minimum of 15% new content, in the case of our book that would be about 875 pieces of information. The likelihood that that quantity has come into existence since the Seventh Edition was published in 2012 is unlikely. So our Seventh Edition remains the definitive scholarship on this subject. Brand new copy direct from the publisher. 3 3/4 x 6", 144-page paperbound book.Lists the first edition identification methods of 5835 publishers in English worldwide. Easy-to-follow mnemonic code printed on inside covers makes this a handy guide for buyers wherever they are buying books. This is the only such guide with definitive, up-to-date information available anywhere.If buying for resale, discounts begin at 5 copies. Inquire about prices and for shipping costs for bulk purchases. Pictures show actual item, never a stock image.…

Store description
Established as a mail-order dealer in 1975, The Jumping Frog opened its first store in Hartford in 1983. Following three relocations in Hartford, our store has resided at Arbor Arts Center, 56 Arbor Street, Hartford, for more than twenty years. Located about one mile from Mark Twain’s Hartford home, now a museum dedicated to his life & work, The Jumping Frog is named for Mark Twain’s first published work, The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County. Our in-store stock includes Connecticut history, books about books, children’s books, art, architecture, photography, first editions, autographed books, transportation, music & dance, literature, and, naturally, books by and about Mark Twain. Our store stock is not listed anywhere and visits by appointment are invited. The items offered on AbeBooks are catalogued for on-line viewing & purchase; they are not browsable at our Hartford store. We have been selling ephemera on-line since 1998 and continue to add to our listings, now exceeding 181,000. Our sister company, McBride/Publisher, offers these books for book collectors: A Pocket Guide to the Identification of First Editions, Points of Issue and Mark Twain: A Bibliography. All are listed on AbeBooks.…
