Publisher's practice

How Ebury Publishing marked its first editions

UK practice (modern books)

  • Ebury prints a number line on the copyright page (the back of the title page). A first printing has 1 in that line; at each reprint the lowest number is taken off, so a line that ends at 2 or higher marks a later printing.
  • The Science of Discworld (Ebury Press, 3 June 1999) shows the rule at work: the second printing removed the 1 and the third removed the 2.

Read the full guide to Ebury Publishing 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.
