Henry Sturcke | 456 comments The 1968 hardcover edition by Farrar of the Ursule Molinaro translation appears three times:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Could these be combined?
In addition, there is no cover image, so I have uploaded a jpg of my copy of the book to my profile. Could this be added? Thanks

Empress (the_empress) No they should be merged. Working on it.

These are editions that were imported when the Amazon script was allowed to import editions without ISBN/ASIN. it then created numerous duplicates for many book often with the same cover and no details at all.

Does the book have ISBN? I've left the third edition to add all the details to unless we can find another duplicate that was not imported by the script. Then I'm gonna delete this one: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Empress (the_empress) Also how do you know it was the 1969 edition as it only had publisher?


Henry Sturcke | 456 comments Thanks, Ellie.

Sorry, no ISBN (came out a year too early). Did you find my cover image on my profile?

Well, since there was no ISBN and no details, it was a confident guess. It was the first edition of that translation, and I'm not aware of a second hardcover edition. BTW, it was published 1968, not 1969.

Yes, just checking if that edition exist. So this cover corresponds to the 1969 edition? Do you have page count?

Empress (the_empress) Found this but slightly different: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9...

Empress (the_empress) Created this one to match yours as there were no shelving and it only had publisher : https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...


Henry Sturcke | 456 comments Thanks muchly, Ellie. Still has the date as 1969, though, instead of 1968.


Henry Sturcke | 456 comments Sorry I overlooked your request for the page count. I didn't mention that since it was correct in at least one of the iterations. The book has 315 pages.
