First Edition Identification

Although the first printing of The Eye of the World that went to market was a paperback, the hardcover is the most sought-after by collectors. The first printing of hardcovers was meant mainly for libraries and limited to around 1500 copies, and so very few remain in collectible condition. The copyright page for the paperback and the hardcover first editions include both the ISBNs for the paperback and the hardcover. Later printings removed the duplicated ISBNS.

True first editions of The Eye of the World will have “First edition, February 1990” on the copyright page, along with a full number line including number 1. The jacket price is $24.95 (later printings were $27.95).

The publisher later rebound paperbacks into hardbacks for reprints. Those rebound paperbacks are a popular variation for collectors as well. 5000 ARC (Advanced Review Copies) of The Eye of the World were printed – these have a different cover than the first printing.
