A selection from BTC's Illustrated Glossary - part of our new, online reference guide.

As new

Popular term for a fine and fresh copy, but often an inadequate condition term. New books are sent to bookstores in cartons but often sustain a fair amount of rubbing in the cartons before they are unpacked, "new," from the publisher. Despite that, some books do arrive at the bookstore in "as new" condition. Although published in 1925, this copy of Liam O'Flaherty's The Informer, offered in our Catalog 101, was in virtually "as new" condition.
