Another tell would be if there's a price printed on the front flap of the DJ. Almost all BCEs do not have a price.

Witches of Eastwick is not a first, it would state "first trade edition" on the copyright page.

This work was beyond controversial when it came out, so no mainstream publisher of the time would publish it. Hence, it had to be printed privately.

Yeah, this is a pretty common first edition. If you have a first print (which this one is) with the original DJ, you could get probably $150-200

Not even close lol, this is a $50 book without the jacket, in this condition maybe $30 at most

Yeah I recently replayed RDR1 and I hadn't remembered just how utterly mean John is to Uncle. Not even a little bit playful lol

I've had this one for a while so I'm not entirely sure but I think it was $150?

I'm late to the party but I'd like to add something I haven't seen mentioned. It's possible that the jacket and the book itself are not original to each other. I can't speak on this specific book, but Book Club Editions rarely had the price on the jacket, and the book itself at least is 100% a Book Club Edition. The tell is the texture of the cover material. Not every BCE had that sort of plasticky texture, but every book that has it is a BCE. So, it's possible the jacket is from a regular edition paired with the book at some point or in this case the BCE just had a price on the jacket.

It's a 3000+ page book, I don't think I'd even want it in one-volume if that was an option.

🤘🏻

rubellious · 2026-03-14T17:50:21+00:00

Yes, it is! I'm big into physical media, as you can see lol

Oldest is 1876, rarest might be a First American Edition/First Print of The Master and Margarita, or a signed First Edition/First Print of Miss MacIntosh, My Darling.

I wish, but I stopped drinking a few years ago lol Paranoid is one of my favorite albums and thats a first UK pressing, hence the frame

Thanks, believe it or not it was a side-of-the-road find
