ppint. 13th Nov 2020		they are quite evidently the same printing, if you bother to compare the descriptions. publishers do sometimes make errors and the year date penguin give in this book for their first p/b printing is believed to be one such error. bill longley, who recorded this error, does not seem to've been active bibliographically since 2007, save for one communication in 2013; i do not know if anyone has an email address for him - or even, whether he is still alive. (and, fwiw, it was not myself, as uploaded - added - this first penguin uk p/b cat# 2095 first time around) (this comment is from another edition of this book)



23skidoo 12th Nov 2020		@ppint. Disagree. The copy I have just says 1963. No mention of the 1964 date you indicate and I did an online search that what I found suggests there was a 1963 Penguin printing. I was aware of the 1964 printing you uploaded and determined that my copy is a different printing. (this comment is from another edition of this book)
