Publisher's practice

How McGraw-Hill marked its first editions

  • Before about 1956 McGraw-Hill did not reliably print a first edition statement.
  • From about 1956 or 1957 McGraw-Hill first editions say "First Edition".
  • During the 1970s McGraw-Hill switched to a number row, in which the lowest number shows the printing.

Read the full guide to McGraw-Hill first editions, decade by decade, and check your copy's copyright page against it. Our number line decoder reads the printing from the row of numbers.
