There are two easy ways to tell if you have an original or reprint. First - like Jason said look inside to see if there is subscription card on the table of contents page. If there is, it should be authentic. Secondly, on page one there is an add at the bottom of the page of a guy with a gas pump. In the original, you can read the writing on the gas pump. In the reprint, you can't. The words are fuzzy. Hope this helps.
