I haven't seen the reprints you have mentioned but I mean things like 
books beginning not from the first page (probably lacking preface), 
big pages with the small print at the center of them (pocket-book 
reproduced on the A4 sheets) and so on. Often the title page is also 
missing and we cant determine from whci printing the copy was made.
I understand that the quailty of the print itself depends on the state 
of the original, but it is not the case.
