How to tell a ‘first edition’ book

How to tell a ‘first edition’ book

787b0389d6bf9c7fc727fc0ef0c78d3aI’m a bibliophile — completely.  I’m a lover of books.  I have been from a very small child.  I’m also a YUGH (Donald Trumps way of saying HUGE — he he he) fan of Little Free Libraries...that’s another story for another article.  On to books and how to tell a first edition book.

It’s actually easier if I share links from other articles.  It’s not as easy as one might think to find and identify first edition books.  For those who collect these, it’s a treasure hunt and estate sales are a wonderful way to find your book treasures — either first edition or just a great book to add to your collection.

 

 

Here are the links:

Book Libris – first edition books

Biblio – first edition tips 

Book Riot – identifying first edition books 

Travelin Librarian – How to identify first edition books 

Abe Books – Here’s a great video! 

 

And the WINNER of the LITTLE FREE LIBRARY is?!!!

And the WINNER of the LITTLE FREE LIBRARY is?!!!

IMG_3262First of all — we had a BLAST at the Birmingham Home & Garden Show at the Birmingham Jefferson Civic Center.   We felt VERY welcomed by all of Birmingham!  Moooowah!!  We met some incredible people!  Thank you all!

We built and gave away a lovely Little Free Library!  The WINNER of this magical creation is the precious COLE Family who live in Homewood.   If you want to find all the Little Free Libraries in your neck of the woods, go the world map on LittleFreeLibrary.org.  

Have a wonderful 2016 Alabama!  We’ll see you around town and next year at the Birmingham Home and Garden Show! Woot!
