Possum Magic

No book-club edition documented. Because Possum Magic has been continuously in print since 1983 under an imprint that never changed name, later printings under the original Omnibus imprint are common and are the principal reprint trap — check the copyright page for added printing statements or a later impression line. Other tells: an Omnibus Books/Scholastic Australia joint imprint, a barcode printed on the rear board, or a later ISBN all indicate a reprint. the printed pricet, 30th, and 40th Anniversary editions (the last with added material), plus board-book, mini, and gift/plush-set issues, are 'first thus' traps.
