. Most volumes contained five (although a considerable minority consisted of three, four, or six) current best-selling novels and nonfiction books which were abridged (or "condensed") specifically for ''Reader's Digest''. The series was published from 1950 until 1997, when it was renamed '' Reader's Digest Select Editions''. The series was popular; a 1987 ''New York Times'' article estimated annual sales of 10 million copies. Despite this popularity, old copies are notoriously difficult to sell. Despite the series' ubiquity, scholarly attention has been sparse. For much of their publication schedule, the volumes were issued four times each year. Each year the company produced a Volume 1 (winter), Volume 2 (spring), Volume 3 (summer), and Volume 4 (autumn). In later years they added a Volumes 5, and then a Volume 6, going to a bi-monthly schedule by the early 1990s. The series was produced for 47 years (1950–1997), until being renamed '' Reader's Digest Select Editions''. (''Note'': UK editions seem to have been somewhat different from USA editions. Pre-1992 Canadian editions also contain different titles.) Occasional books such as ''
