Default The Parker Story

I have been looking at purchasing the book and noticed that there is a trade version and a limited edition . I am assuming that the contents are the same but that the limited edition is an upscale version that is numbered is that correct ? Thanks

That’s correct. The trade edition has cloth-covered boards while the limited edition has Morocco or leather covered boards and is slipcased with the same covering.

Originally the two-volume trade edition was $295 I believe while the limited edition (which incidentally was also signed by all the authors on a paste-in label) originally sold for $500.
