Where's Wally?
Martin Handford · Walker Books, London · 1987
Later Walker and Little, Brown printings, the 1997 special editions, and the 2014 "Deluxe Edition" — which revises original artwork to remove or modify cultural stereotypes, smoking, substance use, nudity and violence — are reprints; the deluxe and anniversary issues are first thus only. Because the censored spreads are the defining tell, any copy showing the clothed sunbather or the retitled "Train Station"/"Campsite" spreads is not a first printing regardless of the date on the title page. No book-club issue is documented in the sources consulted.
