 dray prescot sword'n'sf series by ken bulmer writing as "alan burt akers" #27:

#1: "transit to scorpio" (1972), q.v. for series listing and links.

prob'ly^W near-identical simultaneous first two printings sharing merkin-printed covers,
(but yr hmbl srppnt.'s not seen nor seen report of a canadadian-printed carcassed copy in the wild - yet. ° - edit 31/1/2023 - now has:)

cover art and b+w frontispiece by richard hescox (signed, may be trimmed off bottom of some copies' covers; b+w art signed Hs)
almost-meaningless daw books collector number 487
cover price $2.50 (canadian-carcassed copies intended for distribution north of the parallel)
cover price $2.25 (wholly merkin-printed copies for general distribution)
176pp. including titles, indicia, a note on the pandahem cycle (foreword nf-in-f, signed alan burt akers) etc, end pp. advertising

° - refer to indicia to see if carcass of copy held was canadadian- or merkin- printed
no priority in publication date established, nor liable to be, both giving first publication date of june 1982; but canadian-carcassed copies drop the first digit, ''1'' from the printing history number line, identifying them as formally being the second printing. new american library did this with all the mmpbs they produced for a while: no-one now seems to remember, nor know for certain, why.
