Although variant DJ and book states have been discussed in numerous posts scattered around the forum, here's a thread dedicated to the topic.
This list started by consolidating as many of the past discussions as I could find, and is certainly open to correction and/or edits.
Excluded from the list:
- Limited editions
- Book proofs/ARC's (DJ Proofs are included.)
- Reprints
Links to the books in the Catalog are included where applicable, and I also hunted down some forum posts with more information. It would be great for members who have the various states to post pictures in this thread so they're all together.
