From the FAQ:
Which first editions/first printings had ISBN numbers on their dust jackets? |
With the single exception of 160.3 Auden's Selected Poetry (Second Edition), no book—neither giant nor regular edition—with an ISBN number on the dust jacket was a first printing. The presence of an ISBN number indicates a second or subsequent printing of the dust jacket.
