<p><b>New page</b></p><div>The '''Unseen Library''' is a set of matching hardcover limited editions of the first eighteen Discworld novels. They were published by Book Club Associates (BCA), a company formed when The Reprint Society was bought and renamed by W.H. Smith and the American publisher Doubleday in 1966. The Unseen Library editions were published “by arrangement with [[Gollancz|Victor Gollancz]]” (though in fact other publishers were also involved) between 2001 and 2011. <br />
<br />
These books are quarter-bound in cloth and (faux?) leather, with gold blocking, head and tail bands, and a marker ribbon. Each bears a small gold-embossed full-colour illustration of a character featured in the book, commissioned from [[Paul Kidby]] for this series. Inside the endpapers feature a full-colour map of the Discworld, and there's a half-page illustration on the title page. Each title was published in a limited edition of between 3,000 and 7,000, with the earlier books having larger print runs that the later ones.<br />
<br />
In 2011 BCA was sold to the Webb Group, which went into insolvency in March 2012, taking BCA with it. The Unseen Library edition was left incomplete, published only up to {{M!!!}}, though there were two editions of that book: the first had the misspelled title “Maskarade”, and was recalled and replaced. An unknown number of copies of the misprinted edition remain in circulation. <br />
