What is a "first edition"?
A first edition is the initial version of a book that is published and released to the public. It is the first complete set of printed copies of a book and is often considered valuable by collectors, especially if the book becomes famous or significant. The first edition may include unique features such as original cover designs or initial print runs that are different from later editions. Collectors often seek first editions for their historical and collectible value.
