Collectors of the 90's Hardback series,
If anyone is collecting the hardback series from 1992-present I would like your help. I have a large number of these in my collection and have them in my database. I used to simply list them as style: 90's hardback
format: 90's hardback
subformat: 90's hardback
I treat them as one big collection that is separate from the previous regular, giant and 80's faux sets. But I realize that there may be some collectors who treat the two sizes as coninuations of regulars from 1939-1970 - 80's Faux and then 90's Hardback and similar with the giant size. So I have altered the database structure for the format and subformat of these to:
style: 90's hardback and style: 90's hardback
format: 90's HB Regular format: 90's HB Giant
subformat: 90's HB Regular subformat: 90's HB Giant
[Note the "subformat" 's are redundant here because there isn't enough variation in 90's Hardbacks to require such classification.]
The inside of jackets for these eventually listed titles. But the jacket lists do not ditinguish between regular and giant formats in their bindings. I have determined most titles' actual size but I need help with the following;
qryStyleFromatSubFomat Query Author/Editor Title Angelou, Maya The Collected Autobiographies of Maya Angelou Antin, Mary The Promised Land Augustine, Saint The Confessions Babur The Baburama Barnes, Djuna Nightwood Berendt, John Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil: A Savannah Story Brando, Marlon Brando: Songs My Mother Taught Me Catherine the Great The Memoirs of Catherine the Great Chekhov, Anton Three Plays (Chekhov) Chopin, Kate Christmas Classics from the Modern Library Chopin, Kate Christmas Classics from the Modern Library Dickens, Charles Hard Times Didion, Joan Slouching Towards Bethleham Dumas, Alexander The Three Musketeers Hesse, Herman Siddhartha Hugo, Victor The Toilers of the Sea Jackson, Shirley The Lottery and Other Stories Jacobs, Jane The Nature of Economics Jefferson, Thomas Light and Liberty: Reflections on the Persuit of Happiness Liebling, A.

If you know which size any of these are please let me know.
Thanks
