We would call that the first Israeli edition, making some comment about Steimatzky's publishing program in our listing. You are correct, it would not be as valuable as the Steimatzky Lolita, because Lolita is a more desirable title in general. However, because of the complicated publishing history of both titles, and as with any notable book, there is usually some interest in any early edition, especially in a nice jacket. There are serious collectors who seek every edition by specific authors, though that is uncommon. </p><p><br /></p><p>For price research, I would try to find other Steimatzky-published titles and compare their prices with the 'regular' first editions of those titles, though that might be a bit of a challenge.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
