Can this album be copied, whereby a second or new first edition is created? I would like to add a scan of the rejected first edition, but then I must add a second edition (which is otherwise identical). Probably most users have the second edition? I can also add a whole new album, but everything has to be filled in again :-)

Hi Clemni,
I think this is the first printing. Unfortunately, it is not yet possible to copy items to a new item so that fields do not have to be filled in again. This is high on our ToDo. Coming.
Rene

If that is the first edition, a second edition must be added and the first edition must then add something about the fact that it is a misprint that has largely been taken out of the market: ) If it cannot be copied go I will fill in again as soon as I have time; )

Only the question if it is not better to work with a “no addition” and classify both as first edition and view the rejected edition as a variant.
Because there is almost no difference between the two versions, it is difficult to determine that in reprints the same problem did not creep back into the printing process or that by chance (?) No surplus of the rejected sections were used during the binding (gluing) of the edition. . Have worked in a printing company know the problems well and under time pressure sometimes mistakes happen (deliberate or not).
Just look at how many variants there are of the Tintin albums from the same edition, because surpluses of quires are bound in new covers and old covers with newly printed sections.
or endpapers that suddenly change because the paper for the pages ran out.
Certainly during the war and afterwards due to the scarcity and cost of paper, this was the standard working method out of necessity.
Yet these are considered the same print, but as variants.

When the album was released it was clear that the first edition was being taken back from the stores because it was rejected, I remember that well. The print / version finally approved does not have these characteristics. So as far as I know there are two clear versions / editions / prints. Whether this should be seen as a first edition in the jargon or as a variant: I am not an expert, I must admit: ) In this case, it was based on Matla, but of course that can be changed; ))
