Mercator's World by
Does anyone know if Aster Publishing has stopped publishing Mercator's World? I just purchased a subscription a few months ago and now I find the website gone, phone number not working and no magazine. Any info appreciated.

The Dharma Bums by
I have read that the first Viking printing of "The Dharma Bums' incorrectly states "First Published in 1950". What printing then is the edition that states "Published in 1958" with no statement of a 2nd or later printing.

Rippled Leaves by
Can rippled leaves of books be flattened out? Is it reasonable if this is the condition of, say, the bottom margins of a 300-page book?

Book size by
Is the size of a book given as the size of its pages or the size of its boards? I see many book dealers on the internet using board size but, for ex. The Limited Editions Club describes its books using the page size.

Publishing date again by
Guess I didn't phrase the question correctly. A first printing would be described as "first printing, published 1990" A 10th printing would be described as "Tenth printing, published ?" or can one only say "Tenth printing, copyright 1990"?

Publishing date by
If a first printing of a book is published in 1990, can a publication date of, say, the 10th printing be accurately stated, or is it more proper to just describe the book as "copyright 1990"?

Price clipped - how much difference does it make? by .pd.
Hello bibliophiles, I have read the FAQ but it doesn't give an idea of how much difference price clipping makes to the value of a book. I'm not very experienced in book collecting and I've been told it's not worth buying if it's price clipped. Is it true?
