If I understand right, this was reprinted in 2010 and again in 2013 in slightly simpler editions?

"One day you're going to figure out that everything they taught you was a lie."
The question was asked as to whether these three should be considered UK trade 1st editions.
Thoughts?
I would think the first 9999 (3333 of each) from 2007 would probably count, especially if PS advertised them as such. I think they did, but I could be wrong.Originally Posted by Randall Flagg

"One day you're going to figure out that everything they taught you was a lie."
That's what the article has (except for some reason-mistake?) it says 2K of each book, not 3.33K of each.
I'm not sure it counts as a trade 1st. It's clearly a limited release and therefore (IMHO) a 'collectible'
"A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King
Perhaps we should ask PS
Good call

Was the book available in book stores; even a couple? If not, then it is not a trade edition by definition.
