Advance Reading Copy (ARC)
A pre-publication state of the book, often a wrappered issue with the artwork intended for use with the published book, so that it looks like a paperback version. Advance Reading Copies are often sent to the reviewers and managers of bookstores several months before the first editions of the book will be offered for sale. Sometimes abbreviated ARC in the book trade. When James Baldwin saw this Advance Reading Copy of his first book (this copy offered in our first Classic Book Cards set), he objected to the cover art so strongly that it was changed for the first edition that was actually sold in bookstores.more
