Rage - 1st Edition Identifier

Post by mcbanick »

I’ve seen in multiple locations (including this site) that the two first edition, first printing points for Rage are

“First Signet Printing September 1977”
Number Line: 123456789

I have a copy, but the actual text on the copyright page reads:

“First Printing, September, 1977”

The Number Line appears as stated.

Is this an alternate printing, or is the copyright text noted on this site and others slightly incorrect?

My copy reads:

First Printing, September, 1977
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

I do know a "Printed in Canada" version exist but I don't know the First Edition wording on the copyright page.

Thank you. I will make notes in my collecting database on the Canada marks.
