Beautiful comic by Vallée and Eacersall published by Stripweb with beautiful dust jacket and handsome ex-libris on 150 numbered copies. But suddenly there are also unnumbered ex. for sale. Not that I mind this, but how many are printed?

Every publisher prints spare copies to deal with mishaps during printing. The printed edition is always larger than the published edition. If all goes well, the eventually 'too many' printed copies of a limited edition will never come into circulation and will be destroyed. But the flesh is weak.

And sometimes, but that is much less common, copies are actually overlooked when numbering/signing.

I just learned that the unsigned ex-libris was included with the purchase of two Daedalus albums!
