quackhead Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 I recently bought a "book" at a local thrift shop. I say book, when in actuality it is a computer printout of a book before the release date. The book is "A. Lincoln - A Biography" written by Ronald C White Jr. The printout date on the book is 9/11/2008 on a ".qxp" file and the release date on the book is 1/2009. Is this printout worth anything? It is bound on a 8.5x11 plastic binder folder. Total of 760 pages. It says "First Edition" and underneath that it says "(Designer credit tk)". Thanks in advance for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BookJumper Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Now - I don't know whether the book itself is worth much, but considering that uncorrected proof / advance reading copies are rarer hence more valuable than the first editions you find in bookstores, I would expect a legit pre-publication printout to be even rarer hence even more valuable. The value we're talking here might not be anything major though, considering the book's quite recent and all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
