Thread Name: New Veblen Variation Discovered -- new Tole# assigned From: kamins at ModernLib.com (Scot Kamins) Date: Wed, 18 Feb 2015 15:15:36 -0800 Folks, Tole# 063.3 has been assigned to Veblen?s Theory of the Leisure Class (http://www.modernlib.com/authors/vAuthors/VeblenJackets.html <http://www.modernlib.com/authors/vAuthors/VeblenJackets.html >). Bill Horlick discovered these points, attributable apparently to all copies beginning in Binding #13 in 1967: ? In 063.2 the author's bio note is one and a half pages long and appears in the very front of the book in #8. In 063.3 there is a different, shorter author's bio note and it appears at the very end of the book. ? In 063.2 there is an eleven-item bibliography after the bio note. In 063.3 there is no bibliography. ? 063.2 has 404 pages 063.3 has 296. ? In 063.2 the author's Preface appears before the Table of Contents. In 063.3 the author's Preface appears after the Table of Contents. ? In 063.2 the Chase Foreword appears after the Table of Contents. In 063.3 the Chase Foreword appears before the Table of Contents. Thanks, Bill, for discovering a new collectable variety.

I have both 63.2 and 63.3 in the buckram binding. I just though I was being a nut having two volumes of the same binding (B1), but I have not noticed this difference yet because I have not cataloged them. 63.2 has the "running torchbearer" title page and 63.3 shows the fujita design on the title page. Every other point is as listed above. My 63.3 has a Spring 1967 catalog bound in - no surprise as that is the latest catalog in any buckram. There is a hand written date in the book of 2/70, though, which makes it one of the latest buckrams that I own. Later printing, I am sure. Thanks for the info!

Thanks for the report. I?ll update the file(s). -------------------------------------
