 lancer books mmpb first printing, ''the lancer science fiction library'' series & ''limited edition'' front cover
sub-title only on front cover

there is some doubt expressed in other places as to the date of this edition because of its 75¢ cover price; but this is correct: it may've been declared a limited edition by lancer books in a combination of justifying the cover price, and testing the sales potential of sf category mmpbs.

collection of one short story and four novelettes including the title novelette, plus introduction by sam moskowitz

cover art by robert e. schulz ("res")
cover price 75¢
160pp. including titles, indicia, acknowledgements & cooyrights, introduction etc, end p. advertising

 lancer books mmpb third printing, so stated in publishing history
no sub-title, even on front cover

cover art unsigned, uncredited (almost certainly bob pepper, but wants evidence)
cover price 95¢
160pp. including titles, indicia etc, introduction by sam moskowitz etc, end p. advertising

 lancer books mmpb second printing/edition, gives no indication of earlier lancer mmpb
sub-title only on front cover

cover art by robert e. schulz (signed res, uncredited; retained severely cropped, from first lancer mmpb)
cover price 50¢°
160pp. including titles, indicia, copyright acknowledgements, introduction etc, end pp. advertising
indica publishing history (ha!) gives only a lancer book • 1966

° - which helped bring the dating of the previous lancer books 75¢ cover-priced mmpb printing/edition, cat# 74-808, as 1962 into question in some places

collection with same contents as 74-808
