cover art unsigned, not reported credited, sfaik still as-yet unattributed

the artist who drew the cover cartoon must surely be recorded somewhere - and it is distinctive...

 paperback library simultaneous third mmpb printings sharing merkin-printed covers

cover art by richard powers (signed)
cover price 75¢
160pp. including titles, indicia etc.
check indicia publishing history to see if carcass of copy held was canadadian- or merkin- printed
no priority established nor liable to be, both state third printing: may, 1971

paperback library, inc. was owned by coronet communications from sometime in the late sixties; bought as a going concern, coronet seem to've been quite content with its management, essentially with its steady profitability as part of the (?mini?) conglomerate.
i don't know why coronet communications eventually decided to sell their mmpb publisher to warners.
