WillowRaven (willowraven1) | 352 comments Hello! I am asking for help to update the page count and book cover for the following book:

TITLE: Barboza
AUTHOR: Joe Barboza, Hank Messick
FORMAT: Paperback
PUB DATE: 1975 (original publishing, republished in 2024)
PUBLISHER: Dell (1975)
ISBN 10: (please see my note, below)
ISBN 13: (please see my note, below)
ASIN: B0015ZN8RG (not sure why it's showing an ASIN instead of ISBN for a paperback edition)
LANGUAGE: English

CORRECT PAGE COUNT: 204 pages


Found on GR, here:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...


*Verification Sources*

1. WorldCat, here (paperback):
https://search.worldcat.org/title/420...
OCLC Number / Unique Identifier: 4202193

2. AbeBooks, here (paperback):

3. Amazon, here ( paperback ):
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...]

4. Barnes and Noble (paperback) -- please note info in the "Overview" section:

• • • STUFF THAT NEEDS DONE • • •

1. page count needs to be added (currently not showing anything)
2. cover needs to be updated (currently showing "default" for no cover) - Amazon shows it the best
3. language (English) needs to be added (currently not showing)
4. books need to be merged under 1 heading:
A. https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...
B. https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...
5. anything else I may have missed.


I read this book years ago, the cover for the 1975 edition looked the same as the republished edition.
Couldn't find any ISBN numbers - was this prior to them being incorporated into book info / before being used?

Many thanks in advance.

WillowRaven (willowraven1) | 352 comments I was able to find book info - including ISBN - for book listed at ThriftBooks however I'm thinking they're not an approved source for verification? or am I mixing them up with another place?

just in case, found here:
https://www.thriftbooks.com/w/barboza...

Shows ISBN to be: B000Q56ZKI
for the 1975 edition.

And research showed that ISBN numbers started in 1972, so this would have been just a few years after.
