I'd been in print almost 30 years and never found out what that 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 was - could you explain please?

You can pick up almost any book and it's in there.

David, I'm disappointed in you.

The "Printers Key" signifies the print run number. If you have a book with 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 then it's a book from the 1st print run (not necessarily a first edition). If the book has the key "10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2" then it's from the 2nd print run and so on.

Letters can also be used, and every time the book is printed (that's a print run, not each and every book) the lowest number/letter is removed.

Blow me. I never knew that.

10 doesn't seem a terribly high number though. Some books can be reprinted dozens of times.

David, Damsel, you're discussing a post (now deleted) made by a spammer. Poor show!

Au contraire my little Cuddles.

David may have been in discussion with a spammer, I on the other hand, was discussing David's post
