 cat# UE1353 entered above is^W was wrong and should^W has been deleted
(and replaced with the correct cat#)

it is the cat# for a daw books mmpb printing of ''necromancer'',

and not of this nor any other printing of ''naked to the stars''.

 daw books mmpb simultaneous first printings sharing merkin-printed covers, not first mmpb edition

cover art by paul lehr (unsigned, credited)
interior b+w illustration by jack gaughan (signed with his digraph, uncredited)
cover price $1.50
near-meaningless daw books collector no. 227
160pp. including titles, indicia etc, end p. 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 first daw printing, january 1977/123456789


and also to distinguish from the 1/1978 near-identical third daw mmpb printing, which differs:

cat# UW1278 moved into the yellow daw logo box top fly corner front cover, the near-meaningless daw books collector number being dropped from the cover;
indicia publishing history now states first daw printing, january 1977/3456789
(which retrospectawigglily accounts one of the two first printings to've been the second printing: this is generally taken by merkin dealers, collectors, etc. to've been the canadadian-carcassed printing)

cover art unsigned, uncredited (suggested by denholm to be by armand watson, vid.sub.)
cover price $1.25
176pp. including titles, indicia etc, end pp. advertising

date taken from a checklist to lancer books sf by william j. denholm iii, megavore/sf collector #10, 1980
