So, I'm a collector of obscure editions of Goosebumps books. It wasn't until around last year where I came across a couple books from ebay that had some of the original Goosebumps books, only these had different isbn numbers and were thin printed. upon buying a couple I noticed something weird about them. They had no barcode on the back, nor was there a price. The spine of the book, which if there was an isbn number there would be 2 lines, it only had one line of text. All the books were first printing. the pages were smooth instead of the slight roughness of the original releases. and some (#44) only has the story itself, while others (#56) has the story, preview, and advertisements in the back. The lettering in the books are printed normal, not large or small printed as some might believe. I've searched everywhere of the books and they hold nothing that say it a "special edition" "limited edition" "school market" I wanna say they might be review copies of the books, but i have a few newer uncorrected proof Goosebumps books and they have a page in there stating its an uncorrected proof.

If anyone knows anything about these books let me know
