Comment by ppint.:

front cover is very close to that of the first edition, but publisher, (new) cat#, (new) price & logo are moved next to spine, running upwards towards top edge, allowing the title to be moved up to run across the top of the cover, with harlan ellison's name also moved up; the blurb between those & after his name are changed to read "seven times winner of the/hugo and nebula awards" and "fantastic science fiction stories that/defy belief introduced by theodore sturgeon" respectively.
