Hello dear people, from someone I got a number of hardcover red ears (sealed). Now there are stars printed on the spine (different numbers per book) does this indicate the number in the series?

Are these already in the LD catalog?
Maybe give some titles? And corresponding catalogue numbers in LD.
Or place an image here

buizer Yes they are in the catalog I see.. #38666 is one of them. I count 19 stars on the back and according to the catalog it is the 19th in the series, so I think my earlier suspicion is correct, unless someone has another explanation.

19 stars in a row indeed means number 19 in the series
2 stars next to each other represents a dozen

015steef500 That's strange. Then for example No. 21 (which I also have) would look like this....
*
**
but I have just 21 * in a row. (I do have e.g. star
star
star star
star star)

That's 22
The decision to put 2 stars next to each other for a ten was apparently taken after number 21 came out and they thought the row of stars at 21 was too long?

Maybe post a picture of the back of #19.
With a picture it is always clearer...

Then just compare number 21 or 22 with number 29.
And then look at numbers 30 to 39.
And also numbers 40 and 41.
And then draw conclusions I would say

And then it can hardly be otherwise, at 40 it is:
**
**
**
**
and at 41:
*
**
**
**
**
And the 'line' was indeed getting long.
015steef500 Check out 21 and then the album all the way to the left of the Leike-w image
Maybe until 26 and then there was no more room for stars.
A 'necessary change', so to speak.
