Two different covers for same ISBN?

[Janet]

I'm currently reading A Breath of French Air by H E Bates. I put the ISBN (9780140016857) in but the book cover is not the same as the book I'm reading. Normally I would post in the thread to add a cover, but I'm not sure how it works if one ISBN has two (or more) different covers.

My cover is illustrated by Beryl Cook - I've added a copy of it to my profile.

and since that cover is older than the one that had the ISBN attached, i moved the ISBN to your cover and marked the other as an alternate cover edition.

?? I didn't think we moved ISBN? What ever record claimed it first gets it.

No. It's first added to Goodreads that keeps the ISBN (except for ARCs).

Edit: All fixed.
