How to identify this edition
These points tell this edition apart from other printings and editions of Basic Economics.
✓ Copyright page: “FIRST EDITION” and the complete number line “00 01 02 03 / 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1” (the “1” must be present)
✓ Price: $30.00 US / $44.95 CAN at the top of the front flap (unclipped); later printings kept it, so the price alone doesn't prove a first

✓ Binding: black boards, green cloth spine
