First Edition Identification List by Publisher

The following list of publishers with first edition designations has been compiled from various print and online sources.  The Bookologist does not assume responsibility for any errors that might be contained in it and encourages both additions and corrections from its users. 

Please note that a given designation, though usually definitive in identifying a true first printing, may not in fact be.  Issue points (variant states of a first printing) may apply as well, and sometimes only an authoritative bibliography of the author in question will produce a final answer.  Note also that imprints of publishing houses appear in this list but are not so designated.

IMPORTANT NOTE

This list may not be copied or reproduced in any form without prior written permission from Steiner Associates.  Copyright 2003.
