The Penguin Deluxe classics edition has one missing line which has been fixed in later editions. People will tell you the thing is filled with egregious typos, but no one's ever pointed them out. Just get whatever. The old vintage Where's Waldo one is ugly, so don't get that one.

Yeah, that's the only thing keeping me from picking up a copy at the moment. I just want to be sure I spend money in the right place and don't fuck myself.

I have that penguin edition. Serious wear and tear from reading through it once. I don't like the penguin deluxe because of the pages. I've got a used first edition paperback but it's falling apart, got it for like $6

Editions only matter if the book was translated; if you're reading a book in the language in which it was published, it doesn't really matter, unless there were a huge editorial disaster somewhere in the book's history (like lines deleted from Ulysses or whatever). Just read the damned book, worrying about editions is another form of procrastination.

I got this one and it's quite good. Nice paper, clear font, no (unintentional) typos (so far).

On page 135 where they mention the wedding dresses, Italians, and Spam can trains. What the heck is happening? Been reading it over several times now.
