I have a copy of "Catching Fire" And if u open it when the cover would normally be correct, It is the End of the book, and all the words are upside-down. In other words, Its printed Up-side down And backward, Its a first edtion. Do you think it had value ??
The value would depend on the number of misprints out of the 350000 copies of the first edition (hardbound?), and the relative importance of the author (in this case not that great).
What you describe as a misprint is not a misprint. There is no printing of books with regards to the eventual binding. The book was "mis-bound."
By the way, there is a wonderful irony in seeing a thread about misprints from someone who spells "you" as "u."
@Setanta,
and misprint as Miss print
@chai2,
It occurred to me that that might have been an attempt at a joke, so i thought i'd give the joker the benefit of the doubt.
@Book Lover,
Well Sorry, if you dont like my spelling or what not, then please keep it to yourself.
Thanks

not sure who printed the book, but the author is a woman, maybe that's what they meant by Miss

This is a forum where anyone may speak.
@Book Lover,
If you don't like my comments, please bite my rosy red Irish ass . . .
@Book Lover,
You also capitalize the wrong words, you don't use apostrophes correctly, and "whatnot" is one word.
Well i dont give a **** so GET A LIFE. Alright. I just wanna know something, not some bitches to get all technical. SORRY that i have a life and dont have time to make it perfect!
Yall just like picking on kids.
Wow.
@chai2,
I know people can speak but, why waste your time correcting me for mistakes and being a jerk when you could be answering someone elses stuff?
