The Stand
I have a copy of The Stand with a gutter code T 29 and the price on the dust jacket is 15.95 . This is the first version that came out , not the uncut version. Does anyone know what printion this is?

I could never figure out the later printings from Doubleday. A first edition The Stand has $12.95 on jacket and states FIRST EDITION (in uppercase) on the copyright page.

Re: The Stand
I'm looking at a copy of the "uncut" 1990 edition. It is first but has the price clipped. What are you takes on that? I'm just curious. It's over all in great condition. And I think it'll be the closest my wallet and I will ever get to the 1st edition hardback.

The Stand Uncut 1990 1st edition is easy to get for a few bucks. There are over a million of them!

Re: The Stand
Yes I’m confused about this as well! I found a first edition of The Stand (NOT the 1990 uncut) sell for $245. Seller says it’s the 14th printing of the first edition, I don’t know how they’re determining that and if it makes the book less valuable? New to collecting so let me know your thoughts.

Re: The Stand
When collectors say "1st edition" they really mean "1st edition/1st printing" a 1st/14th would be worth less than a 1st/1st.Abby wrote: ↑Sat Nov 14, 2020 6:45 am Yes I’m confused about this as well!
