Revision as of 13:55, 23 September 2008

Is this meant to be for Arrow Books Limited/Ltd? (I.e. the suffix has just been dropped to avoid fragmentation?) If so, what are the grounds for calling it a publisher when it's stated to be "An imprint of the Hutchinson Group" or "An imprint of the Hutchinson Publishing Group" or "An imprint of Century Hutchinson Limited" (See Solar Lottery by Philip K. Dick published 1972 , The Jagged Orbit by John Brunner published 1979 , Counting the Cost by David Drake published 1989 .) Have you found a separate stand-alone "Arrow Books ltd" company?

We had agreed to regularize names and to drop the Ltd. but this is an incomplete article. It should mention the full name used by the company was "Arrow Books Limited" of 17-21 Conway Street, London W1P 6JD and that it's a division of the Hutchinson Publishing Group, etc. Marc Kupper (talk) 17:46, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
I just looked at the sources again.
  • In 1972 Publication:SLRLTTRJCS1972 says "Arrow Books Ltd / 3 Fitzroy Square, London W1 / An imprint of the Hutchinson Group" and supports use as an imprint.
  • In 1985 Publication:STRHNTCKCK1985 says "Published by Arrow Books Limited / 17-21 Conway Street, London W1P 6JD / A division of the Hutchinson Publishing Group" and clearly identifies Arrow as a publisher. That's what's cited in the article.
  • In 1989 Publication:BKTG02151 says "Arrow Books Limited / 62-65 Chandos Place, London WC2N 4NW / An imprint of Century Hutchinson Limited"
While the article accurately reflects what it cites it's clear the name is also disignated as an imprint. Marc Kupper (talk) 17:55, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
