17th Jul 2020
 daw books mmpb simultaneous first & second printings sharing merkin-printed covers, first edition

cover art by david b. mattingly (signed, also credited)
interior b+w frontispiece by jack gaughan (signed with his digraph "jg")
b+w maps unsigned, not credited
cover price $2.95 on canadadian-carcassed copies intended for distribution north of the parallel
cover price $2.75 on wholly merkin-printed copies for general distribution
near-meaningless daw book no.420
432pp? (check!) including titles, indicia etc, end pp. adverts

refer to indicia printing number line to see if carcass of copy held was canadadian- or merkin- printed
published simultaneously, the canadadian-carcassed copies drop the number "1" indicating 2nd printing, as was daw books (& nal?) custom from late 1980 through the mid-90s


cover art by mattingly and b+w frontispiece by gaughan retained through many (at least 12) printings, with rising cover prices and changes of cat# & isbn, before:

twentieth anniversary edition adds new foreword by cj, taking pagination up to ~528pp. and starts printing count at 1 again (12/2001), q.v.

there's also a tp/b edition simultaneous with the e-book, with new cover art (12/2008), q.v.
