  • Notes:
    • Undated 37th printing that states "Ace edition / July 1984" and "40 39 38 37"
    • There are some dating clues:
      • The inside of the front cover has an ad for Idoru in hardcover from G. P. Putnam's Sons. That publication was published in September 1996.
      • The "Also by William Gibson" page facing the title page includes All Tomorrow's Parties (1999)
      • The ad on page [275] has "Ad # B314 (4/00)" in the lower-right corner.
      • The copyright for the author photo on the inside of the back cover is 1996.
    • Priced for sale in Canada at C$8.99.
    • The cover art is not credited. The Rick Berry credit is from the Ace Books trade paperback edition which has "Cover illustration: Rick Berry" on the copyright page. It's possible the artwork is signed. There's something that looks like an east Asian signature seal stamp in the lower-right corner and just below that is what may be a copyright statement. Unfortunately, the print resolution is not fine enough to make out the details.
