I don't know when the latest edition was, but the 1976 edition has:

  Volume II - Some Real Products
  Library of Congress Catalogue Card Number 76-374891

I don't see any other catalog numbers anywhere, other than Osborne's
own series number of 3001. There is little in the way of publishing
information.

I've got Volume 0, The Beginner's Book (c) 1977 (#6001) and it doesn't
have an ISBN or Library of Congress numbers either.

Lots of pictures of an IMSAI 8080 though, with "the luxury of a Teletype"...

FWIW, I also have a copy of #4001, 8080 Programming for Logic Design,
(c) 1976, which does have a Library of Congress number, 77-670032.
