Okay, well, I don't have that info, ~plus~ it's not in ~any~ of my 
books.  They're all hard-cover, here's all the info on that page:

That's it, absolutely nothing else.  SS has the dedication on this 
page, and of course, the years and ISBN numbers vary.  But, the info 
in each book is the same.  I have no idea why this is, but I don't 
know anything about publishing.

I'm sure there's some reason, and I suppose since it's not there my 
book isn't worth anything, except to me, but it's weird that I 
wouldn't be able to tell what print number it is.
