I side with the minority on this one.
In 250 I would give the one s on the title page recto as peing the
prime source for the description. The verso statement may be a
forgotten carry over from the first printing. You could give it in a
quoted note I suppose, 500 $aFirst edition"--Title page verso.
I say this even though 250 is now repeating. Having the "First
edition" in a 250 would be misleading I suspect.
While you might like 250 $a[First edition updated], it does not *say*
that. It will be interesting to see what the next edition, if any, is
called.
