 brown, watson ltd. digit books p/b undated° second printing with new

cover art uncredited, unsigned
cover price 2'6
160pp. including titles, indicia etc.

° - the 1963 date is from donald h. tuck

the new cover art could indicate someone was less than entirely chuffed with the addition of the space station to chesley bonestall's art on the cover of digit books' first printing. . .
