Jeffrey Williams | 49 comments There are several versions of this book on Goodreads, this one is the 1967 Vintage paperback, 1st edition with ISBN: 0394700333. This looks to be the correct edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

According to Google Books, this was published in October 1967 and has 198 pages. They list the ISBN 13 as 9780394700335 and the ISBN 10 as 0394700333
https://www.google.com/books/edition/...

I appreciate any and all assistance you can be with this. Thank you in advance.

Martin | 37047 comments The edition you linked to was clearly added in error by a bot as it had publication date of 1724, as it had no ratings I have merged it into main edition.
Did the 1967 edition really have an ISBN, it seems very early.

Jeffrey Williams | 49 comments Vintage printed the following on the front face left side with type going up the page (sideways as you look head on): "$5.95 V-33 394-70033-3. Is 394-70033-3 not the ISBN 10?

I understand about Google Books not being an acceptable source. I try to use WorldCat whenever possible, but in cases like this one, I was unable to find the exact edition on WorldCat. Without having the ISBN 13, or a clearly identifiable ISBN 10, it makes it tough to find a good reference for this that is acceptable.

Hope this clears things up a little bit at least. Thanks for your help.

Jeffrey Williams | 49 comments One thing is problematic with the one that you merged it into - the 1967 Vintage has 198 pages. The 1992 version, which you merged into, has 256.

Martin | 37047 comments Here is the Goodreads listing for the ISBN you are giving https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Where is the image with ISBN on front cover.

The edition I merged had no page numbers, no ISBN and publication date of 1724 - it had no ratings or reviews. Once we can establish if there was a 1967 Vintage paperback it can easily be added. Worldcat only gives 1967 as copyright date so it could easily have a later publication date.

Jeffrey Williams | 49 comments I don't have an image. I have the book in my possession.


message 9: by Martin (new)

Martin | 37047 comments Are you able to provide scan or photos of front cover and any pages with issue data?


message 10: by Jeffrey (new) - added it

Jeffrey Williams | 49 comments Yes. just tell me how to get them to you.


message 11: by Martin (new)

Martin | 37047 comments You can add them to your profile pictures

Jeffrey Williams | 49 comments It's been ages since I've done that. I'll figure it out tonight and get you the links.

Jeffrey Williams | 49 comments I finally was able to get some time to look closer at this. Thanks for your patience.

Here are the images that I shot of the book.

Cover:


ISBN:


Copyright:


I hope I did this correctly.


message 14: by Martin (new)

Martin | 37047 comments Thanks, I have added your book https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
I have added some text with the ISBN in description
I don't think this can be the 1967 edition so have not given a publication date. Here is Amazon listing for 1967 edition https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0... note that it shows a cover price of $1.95 but your book shows $5.95


message 15: by Jeffrey (new) - added it

Jeffrey Williams | 49 comments Thanks. Listing it as "an earlier edition" is fine. I agree with you that it probably isn't 1967 based on the cover price, but we really don't know what date it is.

What I do know is that it has 198 pages. (Forgot to share this one with you.) Could you please update the page count. It would be greatly appreciated.
