refer to indicia publishing history printing number line to distinguish from undated third printing;
the existence of this third printing implies the existence of a canadadian-carcassed variant of the first edition, retrospectively deemed to've been the second printing - or indicated second printing by printing number line -
or of a bona fide, wholly merkin-printed second printing, albeit undated, distributed between the known first and third printings;
but no such second printing has been seen by yr hmbl srppnt., nor seen reported - not as yet.
