cover price £1.50 (overseas territories prices?)
160pp. including titles, indica etc, end pp. advertising (this comment is from another edition of this book) |

| | sphere books fifth or sixth p/b printing(s°), but fails to list their second printing in the publishing history
so appears to be sphere books uk p/b fourth or fifth printing(s°)
cover art unsigned, awful film tie-in mish-mash of images, puff text manages to tie in not only to the twentieth century fox film allegedly based on this novel, but also to star wars (!)
cover price 85p, 93½p eire, 90c malta, $2.75 australia, $2.75 new zealand
160pp. including titles, indica etc, end pp. advertising
despite being the uk p/b film tie-in printing(s°), does not include any stills from the film - not even in b+w
° - there may be two near-identical 1978 sphere film tie-in printings: refer to printing history to check (this comment is from another edition of this book) |
