I have no idea where else to ask this:

I have the 2nd edition of the book and I noticed that on the spine of the book it says "Secon Edition" instead of "Second". I'm just wondering if this is on every copy of the second edition of the book? Or, is your copy like this?

Mine says "Second"!
 
Maybe they're different printings.
