What does Limited Edition, Open Edition & Annual Edition mean?
Several companies have their own definitions for what each of these terms mean. For the Tonner Doll Company, A ‘Limited Edition’ means that a product is produced only to a specific number. One of the most common misconceptions is that ‘Open Editions’ are always available…this is not necessarily so. Once the production run has come and gone, there may be a decision to not re-order the product under an ‘Open Edition’. Despite an item’s popularity, Tonner Doll may not return to an edition after its production run because of popularity achieved well after the production run is planned. ‘Annual Edition’ products are items produced only within a current catalog year. Please understand that open editions are produced based on INITIAL orders and may not be produced in levels to meet market demand.
