How does one truly distinguish between a 2nd print and the 7th print? The descriptions make them seem nearly identical -- where, exactly, is the ISBN located? "Bottom left" is not a whole lot of help - how far in? Does it ride the spine or lower edge?

From 2nd print description: ISBN on either back cover bottom left or front cover bottom left; both versions reported.

From 7th print description: ISBN on front cover bottom left only... notice that the difference between this print and Second / Third prints is solely the location of the ISBN number.

Well, that's good... if your 2nd print is the one with the ISBN on the back - but if its the one with it on the front (since it does not say it would have both,) you're stuck with my situation....

Thanks for helping me with my idiocy.

How many pages does yours have?
12 pages = 1st through 3rd prints (Including the uncertain 2nd print)
16 pages = 4th through 9th prints

The Silver Aniversary Issue is almost identical to the 3rd print and so it also has 12 pages...

12 pages of module, and then 20 of illustration book. Also, the map is blue, if that matters.

The 7th print has the illustration book on the inside and its all one module (i.e. stapled as one book, not 2 separate ones.)

Also seems off a little with regard to color of the cover.

Now, this is useful. The version I have has the module text separate from the illustration book, so I can safely assume it is not 7th print.
