Roald Dahl 1st Viking 1995 THE MAGIC FINGER ill Quentin Blake Near New Near new except for penned name inside. ISBN 0-670-85252-X is completely valid for the 1995 Viking first printing and line number 1 3 5 7 9 10 8 6 4 2 is fantastic—that officially confirms the book block itself is a true 1995 Viking first printing. Viking (part of the Penguin Group) frequently printed an alternative run of dust jackets without a printed price on the front flap. These were explicitly designated for the international export market (such as Canada, Australia, or mainland Europe) so local retailers wouldn't have to cover up a fixed British Pound (£) price. The Look: The flap will be completely uncut and smooth, with a blank white space or an empty box where the price usually sits. Impact on Value: Negligible. Collectors generally accept export jackets as completely authentic matching components for the 1st printing. If the book and jacket are in pristine condition, it still holds a solid value of $35 to $60
