 daw books first mmpb printings, simultaneous first mmpb edition

cover art by michael whelan (credited on back cover and on indica page)
near-meaningless daw books collector no. 941
cover price (canada $6.99) • u.s. $5.99
532pp. including 8pp. titles, indicia etc, 9 end pp: 2pp. pronunciation, 3pp. glossary, 4pp. advertising

refer to printing history number line to see if carcass of copy held was canadadian- or merkin- printed
no priority in publication date established nor liable to be, but canadian carcasses drop the initial digit '1' ceding priority to the merkin-printed, as was the daw/nal rule from 10/1980-early 1990s.

 doubleday science fiction book club h/cvr, not first h/cvr edition
produced for sale only to members of the sfbc initially, then to members of any doubleday book club

cover (d-j) art by michael whelan (credited on d-j back flap, shared from daw h/cvr & mmpb editions)
cover price (none; initially sold to sfbc members at $6.98)
336pp. including six unpaginated pp. titles, indicia etc, two blank end pp, sewn in signatures and quarter-bound with endpapers in black with title, author, daw logo blocked in silver on the spine, between grey paper-covered boards

n.b. also retains daw isbn, logo, on d-j, title page, indica, as (in)appropriate: adds sfbc cat# on back of d-j near bottom spine corner, does not state first printing, date and drops indica printing history number line completely; and further n.b. pagination extent much smaller than daw books h/cvr first edition's 384pp. - i.e. the science fiction book club edition has been re-set.
the bar-code number is truncated by the too-small field, in full it is 9780886775902 90000>
