BOOK CLUB EDITION

Also BCE. Editions published by book clubs (i.e.: The Book-of-the-Month Club (BOMC), Fireside Book Club, History Book Club, The Literary Guild, etc.). Generally speaking, not first editions although some Science Fiction or other genres where first edition publication took place through a Club. A seller should always disclose if a book is a BCE. The collector should arm themselves with the relevant bibliographies to know how to tell a BCE from a true first edition and when a BCE might be desirable.
