Protective coverings used to bind together the pages of a book are sometimes intentionally copied with what type of written work?
Book cover A book cover is any protective covering used to bind together the pages of a book. Beyond the familiar distinction between hardcovers and paperbacks, there are further alternatives and additions, such as dust jackets, ring-binding, and older forms such as the nineteenth-century "paper-boards" and the traditional types of hand-binding. The term "Bookcover" is often used for a book cover image in library management software. This article is concerned with modern mechanically produced covers.
First edition (disambiguation) First edition is the first set of copies of a book printed from substantially the same setting of type. A related term, "editio princeps", from the Latin phrase having the same meaning, refers to the first printed edition of a work that previously existed only in a manuscript original (whether extant or not) and/or hand-copied reproductions.
