old man and the sea
Hello,
I have a copy of "The Yearling" and know this to be a true first because of the "A" on the copyright page, but what does it mean when a book, like my copy of "Old Man and the Sea" has "Q-8.59[H]" on its copyright page? Both books are published by Scribners. Cheers, Robert |

The [H] probably is a code for the printer they used. Francis A. Miniter |
