w. h. allen star books imprint p/b first printing, not first uk p/b edition

cover art by attila hejja (signed, uncredited; reused from "legacy from the stars" john gregory (1979), q.v.)
cover price £1.00 (check for overseas territories prices)
240pp. (check) including titles, indicia etc, end pp. advertising

cover is almost exactly the same as that of the 1982 leisure books mmpb (q.v.); check whether this 1982 uk edition was - or was not - produced as a modified run-on of the leisure books mmpb printing.
