This doesn't cover number lines that also include a year. I've seen number lines like this: 98 99 00 01 02 5 4 3 2 1 where the first set of numbers represent the year and the second the printing, and there you need to make sure the earliest year printed is the year the cook was first printed.

I know you might not see this but do most books have first edition under the number line, I’m trying get a newer Stephen king book and any help would be truly appreciated

Mine only has a 1 , no other numbers so what does that mean

Thank you for doing a tutorial for fine hair - I tried this and it has really helped xxx

Thank You! My daughter brought me one and had no idea how to put it in her hair!

Never really explains what a number line REALLY is....I mean, why stick a whole bunch of numbers together? She also only touches on the fact that the "1" of a first edition can be ANYWHERE in the line. I give this video a C+.

I have a number of 3 to 10 in ine of my novel.Is it a first edition then.

I have a harry potter and the order of the phoenix book. The only numbers it says are 70,69,68,21,22,23? And there's a big gap between the 68 and the 21? AS WELL AS my book is a misprint, it is missing pages 687-718, then it has pages 719-750 printed twice? HELP PLEASE???

What if you have a numerline 10-1 and then it has 15-19? It's also a first illustration

Finally a great video about those comb hair pins!

my prisoner of azkaban book is 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1. What is it worth?

10 years later and this helped me so much!! I hope these never go out of style.

Nicely done ❤ good you dumped the pockets. I think pockets on the front of a ladies blouse are silly. After all what can you put in them?? Nothing.

Would have been nice if you zoomed in. I can't read anything on my phone it's too small. was still interesting, cheers Graham

Went through a number of sources to finally answer what determines first edition AND first printing. Your video was clear and straight to the point. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much, I definitely found this useful as I am trying to make sure that books I own are entered properly into a "library tracker." If you have any suggestions or videos on the best tools to use to keep track of a book collection would be interested in that as well.

sounds like you are whispering

Hello, your video has been really helpful, however I've run into books that do not follow the number line convention that you've covered in this video. Example, "10 9/9 0/0 1 2 3 4" Is this a 1st print or a 10th print? Also do you know what the 9/9 and/or 0/0 mean?

thanks a lot!!!!!

Excellent series. I am not intentionally collecting books for collecting, but I have 10,000 and am in the process of putting them into the CLZ database. This series helps me understand the fields to fill in on the software. thank you for making things clear.

When I was in school, I had a librarian who was very insistent that anyone who came upon a new book in the library, should properly “season” that new book, by carefully placing the book flat on the table, then taking a few pages from first one one side of the book and rubbing the pages open, then flipping the book to the back and taking a few pages, rub those pages open. You were supposed to go back and forth from front to back always taking a few more pages,until you met in the middle of the book, thereby slowly opening up the spine or seasoning the book. This we were told, evenly broke open the spine, and kept the pages from falling out. We were NEVER to take a book, halve the pages and bend the book backward. (I hope I’ve explained adequately what I mean. I can visualize Mrs. Burton, the librarian showing us what to do, but it’s hard to explain it in writing.) Have you ever heard of this technique, and do you think it’s a good thing to do? I’ve been faithfully seasoning my books for 50 years, but I have a book lover friend who barely opens hers when she reads them so that the spines don’t crack who is horrified!

The wooden frame/decor/board-thingie next to the yellow book and above the stormlight hardbacks, where have you bought it? :)

So does 1 mean first printing?

Great video. There are smaller combs available. The Tuck Size of 1.5" (7 or 8 Teeth) may work better and not bother your ears.

Thanks.

Could you tell me what 1 through to 20 would mean? Thanks.

Yes! That’s exactly the hairstyle. Looks fantastic on you too! Thanks for sharing

Omg thank you so much!!

Do you know if prime is a standalone or thuse it have an inconclusive ending? Is it good? (Please like my coment so i can see your answer, i ther wise i wont be alerted)

This was really helpful to see it made. I just bought this and am in the process of grading it up a bit. Thanks for taking the time to explain it all so slowly and thoroughly! The color way on this fabric you chose is so 30s!

I am a first/first junkie 😅

Read these like 20 years ago. Absolutely love them. Read them twice. I like the omnibus editions. The illustrations are cool

Very pretty!

So helpful!

Shut the front door this is so much easier than it was ever taught me.

Thank you <3

So nice you and your voice

Very nice. You did an incredible job well done 😁

Wow! What a collection! What id give for even one book from your collection 😂

Woah! Your Well of Ascension paperback... It's miscut. Super cool! Is the text shifted too, or is it just the cover?

Woot! I've been waiting for this video.

Thank you! I too, have fine, thin hair and heavy combs are always slipping out. I LOVE your hair style.

Thank you for this!

I would have liked to see your actual makeup collection and what you are holding on to.

Beautiful blouse!
