The first printing carries no 'First Edition' statement on the copyright page; it is identified solely by the complete number line 1 3 5 7 9 10 8 6 4 2, and dealers describing first printings note the edition is 'not explicated as such at copyright page, first printing as indicated by number sequence thereon.' This matches documented Viking practice, which by the 1980s-2000s had moved from a printed publication statement to a number row as the first-printing indicator
