On the copyright page usually on the second or fourth page you will see a series of numbers usually under the ISBN number... it will look something like 09 08 07 RRD 01 02 03 04.... this example means year 2007 printing at RR Donnelly 01 is first printing. They put the 02.... and the 08..... to make reprints and updates easier.

How do you tell a first edition j d Salinger's raise high the roofbeams carpenter?

It will say "First Edition" on one of the first inside pages. Look closely, it is in small print. A more important question will be be...which "state" is it in, by that I mean is it a 1st printing, 2nd printing, 3rd printing etc. They are all first editions, but the 1st printing of this particular volume is worth pretty big bucks: $700-$1,000 or more. The only way to tell it is a true 1st printing is if the dedication page is left off. It was an error that was corrected in the 2nd printing. Scarce...look for this volume!
