26th Oct 2023
 ace books mmpb first printing, first edition
half a classic ''ace double'' with two front covers, contents tête-beché to each other

cover art by (frank) kelly freas (signed with his initials in a circle, uncredited)
b+w frontispiece by jack gaughan (signed with his jg digraph, uncredited)
cover price 60¢
½ 256pp. including 2 x titles, indicia etc, advertising in-between the double's halves

the number-string on the spine, 020-08027-060, is not an sbn nor an isbn of any kind.
sfaik it is an abn - an american book number - which was a system incompatible with the sbn and its later further developments - and which lacked any checksum digit, with the cover price in cents in three digits appended


doubled with ''crisis on cheiron'' juanita coulson (1967), q.v.
