Well. This is a nice one too.
For reprints, are we going to re-record all the stories that appear in the album? A print is always identical to the first print, so that seems undesirable to me. Also because - as soon as you can also search for story numbers - we get a lot of duplicates that actually relate to one story / album.
A revised edition (which has therefore been changed!) Should actually also be able to be indicated, or be re-recorded as the 1st edition.
Another difficult problem.

I like the idea. The database designer knows whether it will be a difficult problem. Because I understand that it means that you will have to be able to enter multiple front and back cover images for 1 type of album release?

No, I didn't really mean that. I am concerned that if there is a reprint of an album with many different stories, you have to enter all those stories again. A duplication option from the first edition would be a godsend.
Furthermore, in one effort I questioned whether it is desirable in any case to re-record all those stories with every unchanged edition, but that is actually a different question.

I fully agree with Arco that it would be very useful to be able to copy stories (or sets of stories) within an album or to a new album.
It goes without saying that the entire list of recorded stories should also be included in the reprint, but I do argue (in the long term) for a way to make the reprints "invisible" during a search.

Yep. That is a clear point for improvement. Inheriting stories to other albums. I put it on our ToDo list.
