Wrong cover (dated after the publication) and no ISBN number
It's not the wrong cover; the ISBN was reused, but that edition was first published in 1986. I restored its ISBN.

Edit: Actually, I read The Hobbit in '66 and the three trilogy books in '67 but...

Thanks.

Re-used ISBN's (???) ughhhh!
Is this like re-using SSNs?

Thanks --- (This is why it's good to have someone else checking.)

Heh. No, this is perfectly legal, albeit annoying.
And I got that last one.

I corrected the author spelling and now need to delete this version. Think it was meant as a review ...
Got both. Meghan, for future reference, it is helpful if you combine the edition to be deleted with the edition to be kept. Thanks!

I actually did try that, but when I clicked on "combine editions," only one of them showed up, so I wasn't able to. But thank you!

I can't find a record of any "Uncookbook" anywhere, except as part of a subtitle for a raw food cookbook. Only author name given is "Johnson" and there are no ISBNs. There are no ratings or reviews, but it says it needs a superlibrarian.
No ratings or reviews, but someone DID shelve it. I merged it with the most likely candidate: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/39...
What do you mean by "canceled"?
Also, it's in the Amazon database, so deleting it was counterproductive. I reimported it.

It seems to be "hidden" in Amazon's database. Searches don't bring it up, but the API (which GR uses to import books) clearly does.
I'm finding varying info on this edition; I'd leave it for now.

Well, it was better than just deleting it without combining it with anything, I figure. (And her note on where the book was recommended made sense with this title.)
