 1985 granada publishing edition uses mayflower books' i(by then)sbn, 058312911, but imposes a panther books imprint (by end 1968 they owned both) upon it, as well as conferring new cover art by geoff taylor.

1986 wm. collins & sons' edition ignores previous imprints and puts its grafton name on it, retaining the mayflower books-originated (i)sbn and geoff taylor's cover art.

 granada publishing group mayflower books first printing, first uk edition

cover art by chris foss (uncredited, unsigned°, collected in ''hardware: the definitive sf works of chris foss'' (2011), q.v.)
cover price 25p, 60c south africa, $2.50 singapore, 80c australia, 80c new zealand, 95c canada
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
144pp. including titles, indicia etc, end pp. advertising


near-identical second mayflower books printing 1972:
cover price 30p, 75c south africa, $3.00 singapore, 95c australia, 95c new zealand, 95c canada
so also 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

refer aso to indicia publishing history for presence/absence of line stating
reprinted 1972

° - some copies in either printing may bear chris foss' ''f in a line-drawn box'' monogram at bottom edge of cover art - un-guillotined off in production - but i'm unsure that i've ever seen such.
