Description:
Mercury Books, London, third edition, 1961. Illustrated laminated wrappers, 8vo,. 208 pp. This first paperback edition of Carter's classic work has a photograph on the front cover with various features of books identified and keyed to a table on the rear cover. Of the first edition of this book Wilmarth Lewis wrote in The Book Collector, 'It is a delight - clear, accurate and witty. ABC books are not meant to be read straight through, but I have gone from Abbreviations to Yellow-back without skipping and been instructed and entertained on every page. It is perhaps unwise to pronounce a book 'a classic' on its publication, but if ever that inflated word is to be so risked it may be of the book under review. This is not only because its author has achieved what he set out to do with brilliant success, but because he is himself in such large measure responsible for the tone and temper of present-day book collecting.. .We shall, fortunately, never get to the XYZ of book collecting, and…

Description:
Hart-Davis, London, fifth, revised edition (1972), reprinted with corrections 1974. Cloth, 8vo, 21 cm,. 211 pp. From the blurb: "Foxed, not in STC, rare in boards, Q6 is a cancel as usual, secondary binding, Harleian style, made-up - do you know the meaning of these and hundreds of similar terms constantly used in the catalogues of antiquarian booksellers and auctioneers ? If not, John Carter's expert but informal manual is the book you have been waiting for. Not only is the actual language of book-collecting full of jargon and special terminology. The rules, conventions and taboos of the cult are also legitimately puzzling to the layman, and its technique involves many unsuspected subtleties. Here, under about 450 alphabetical entries, ranging in length from a single line to several pages, may be found definition and analysis of the technical terms of book-collecting and bibliography, interspersed with salutary comment on such subjects as auctions, condition, facsimiles and fakes,…

Description:
Rupert Hart-Davis, second, revised, edition, 1953.

ABC books are not meant to be read straight through, but I have gone from Abbreviations to Yellow-back without skipping and been instructed and entertained on every page.
