 contents:
not quite all of the max kearney stories°:
all but two first published in f&sf:

please stand by (short story) vol.22 #1, 1/1962; atlas bre vol. v #2, 1/1964
uncle arley (ss) vol.23 #1, 7/1962; atlas bre vol. iii #12, 11/1962
help stamp out chesney (original here)
mcnamara's fish (ss) vol.25 #1, 7/1963; atlas bre vol. iv #12, 11/1963
kearney's last case (ss) vol.29 #3, 9/1965
breakaway house (ss) vol.30 #5, 5/1966
the ghost patrol (ss) vol.35 #4, 10/1968
the strawhouse pavillion (ss) coven 13, (probably meant to be vol.1 #3, but states vol.1 #2), 1/1970
fill in the blank (ss) vol.32 #5, 5/1967

° - not collected are:

time was (ss) f&sf vol.20 #2, 2/1961; atlas bre vol. ii #7, 6/1961
hello from hollywood (ss) f&sf vol.65 #6, 12/1983

there would appear to be adequate justification for the omission of the latter.

 charter communications ace books imprint mmpb first printing, first edition
half a classic "ace double" format mmpb with two front covers, contents tête-beché to each other

mostly reprint collection of nine short stories, seven reprinted from f&sf 1961-68,
one from coven #13, 1/1970, and one, "help stamp out chesney", is first published here;
i think all are max kearney stories, save perhaps these two (check).

cover art by karel thole (unsigned, credited)
cover price 75¢
½ 256pp. including 2 x titles, indicia etc, advertising pp. in-between the double's halves
