berkley publishing group charter communications ace books imprint undated presumed thrid printing:

 charter communications, inc. ace books mmpb first printing, first p/b edition

cover art by (frank) kelly freas (signed with his monogram),
b+w interior illustration by jack gaughan (signed with his monogram)
cover price 75¢
192pp. including titles, indicia etc.

non-sbn (sans any ninth, checksum digit): 44116669 on spine (?): though 441- is ace books' (i)sbn publishers code (it may've been issued to charter communications, inc.), ''16669'' is rather unlikely a first ace books five-digit system cat# for a first printing, as these were intended all to end with either a ''0'' or a ''5'': so it's possible that it was intended to be ''16660'', and a mistake was made. . .

known subsequent printings' cat#s increase by one progressively, as is correct within the system
