Penny--  

Thank you for the info.  This is going to make me sound even more 
stupid, but I ~have~ to be looking in the wrong place.  Nowhere, in 
or on my books, can I find this info.  Can someone tell me 
definitively, should I be looking on the page that has the text 
copyright, the illustration copyright, the publisher info, "no 
reproduction w/o written permission of the publisher", etc.?  If this 
is the right place, then none of the printing number info is there.  
I'm at a loss.
