ppint. 20th Sep 2021		''roman'' is not a sub-title, and should^W has been deleted it is a classification, translating to ''(a) novel'', or ''fiction''.



David Whiteley 3rd Dec 2022		With acknowledgement to 23skidoo, back cover with prices intact added. (this comment is from another edition of this book)



ppint. 15th Nov 2022		berkley publishing group berkley medallion imprint simultaneous first printings sharing merkin-printed covers cover art by richard powers (unsigned, uncredited, retained from berkley mmpb 1957 & reprints, attributed in ''the art of richard powers'' jane frank (2001), q.v.) cover price 35¢ 144pp. including titles, indicia etc, end pp. advertising refer to indicia publishing history to see if carcass of copy held was canadadian- or merkin- printed no priority established nor liable to be, both state second edition, september, 1960 after berkley edition, december, 1957 (which had five printings, or four excluding a canadian printing from the accounting, which berkley publishing appear to have done, in later printings) (this comment is from another edition of this book)



23skidoo 31st Dec 2020		I have the 1970 7th Pan printing. It shows the first Pan edition as 1953, not 1965. Also, the 1970 version carries the subtitle "and The Man Who Could Work Miracles". Do earlier Pans have this subtitle and was the second story part of the 1953 edition? (this comment is from another edition of this book)



ppint. 23rd May 2019		j. m. dent & sons ltd. everyman library h/cvr 915 (1935 & ff.) is an omnibus double containing the two novels, ''the wheels of chance'' (1896) and ''the time machine'' (1895, possibly the revised 1924 text), 320pp? including titles, indicia etc, end pp. this dent / dutton everyman library p/b bookcat item differs considerably from the pan books p/bs to which it is currently linked. cover art by peter edwards (credited on back cover) cover price 30p 112 pp? including titles, indicia etc, end pp. advertising (this comment is from another edition of this book)



ppint. 23rd May 2019		third pan books p/b edition/printing, type re-set. technically a collection, as it includes ''the man who could work miracles'' (short story) (1898) cover art uncredited cover price 2'6, australia 4'-, canada 60c so should be re-flagged "international" according to respected moderator's rule - or not so re-flagged, according to equally well-respected moderator's heartfelt plea some copies bear only the latter two prices (on back of cover, as usual) 128pp. including titles, indicia etc, end pp. advertising near-identical fourth printing, 1966 from later printing's publishing history refer to indicia for presence of a line advising this new printing, to distinguish. (fifth printing (1968), with redesigned front cover incorporating previous b+w cover art, new cat# 01697 incorporating previous cat#, new cover price 3'6, will presumably be a new bookcat item.)
