 two, possibly three near-identical editions/printings sharing merkin-printed covers and hence also cat#, almost-meaningless collectors number 46°,

cover art by (frank) kelly freas (credited and signed "kelly freas")
b+w frontispiece by jack gaughan (uncredited, but signed with his jg monogram)
cover price 95¢
192pp. including titles, indica etc., end p. advertising

refer to indica to see if carcass of copy held was canadadian- or merkin- printed.
no priority established nor liable to be between first printings.
check indica also for statement of a later (likeliest thrid, or second canadian) printing.

(° n.b. the fourth and fifth printings bear different cover art (by david b. mattingly), different cat# UE1649, different near-meaningless collectors number 447, different cover prices $2.25 & $2.50, and cardinality of printings indicated by progressive truncation of printing number-string, "4 5 6 7 8 9 10", & "5 6 7 8 9 10" respectawigglily; because of new isbn & cover art, enter these as (at least one) new bookcat item.)

 daw books near-identical simultaneous mmpb 4th & 5th printings sharing merkin-printed covers, and hence also isbn, cat#,

cover art by david b. mattingly (signed "mattingly", also credited)
b+w frontispiece by jack gaughan (signed "jg"; retained from first daw books printings)
near-meaningless daw books number 447 (different from the first printings' daw books no., q.v.)
192pp. including titles, indica etc., end p. advertising

refer to indica number-string to establish which printing is held;
cover prices also differ:

$2.25 (merkin-carcassed fourth printing, indica number-string 4 5 6 7 8 9)(8/1981 from jaffery)
$2.50° (canadian-carcassed fifth printing, indica number-string 5 6 7 8 9) (8/1981 from jaffery)

(° - as was the then daw books inc./n.a.l. norm, the second letter of the daw books cat# was not changed to match the cover price of the canadadian printing. i doubt anyone now remembers why (not); but the two cover prices were always given in the n.a.l. printed "catalog"/stocklist/order form, so i further doubt anyone was terminally confused. - ppint.)
