From: <modlib@removed> ((Ron Holl) Date: Fri, 23 Sep 2005 14:25:34 -0500 Does anyone have a 1955 or 1956 DJ for 168.2? I am curious as to what the DJ looks like (if it has red characters on some of the text). ------------------------------------- From: "John Wolansky" <jwol@removed> Date: Fri, 23 Sep 2005 22:08:22 -0400 I have a 1942 copy with a g dust jacket. The "Complete and Unabridged" statement just below the title and "A Modern Library Book" at the bottom of the front panel and much of the rear panel of the dust jacket are in red. The layout is like the 1954 copy on dogeared, with the red areas like the P-4 on dogeared. ------------------------------------- From: <modlib@removed> ((Ron Holl) Date: Sat, 24 Sep 2005 11:34:22 -0500 Thanks for checking. So, a '42 and '57 look the same, but Scot's '54 has no red. That's negates my theory of the DJ changing at the same time as the issuance of the PB ('55). Does anyone else have a copy like Scot's? I guess that 1940 DJ did not last very long. ------------------------------------- |
