 this appears to be the 12/1955 merkin science fiction book club edition, as it differs in pagination from the first and does not declare ''first edition'' on the indica page.

 e. p. dutton & co. h/cvr first printing, first edition (so stated in indica publishing history)

cover (d-j) art (unsigned, may be credited on d-j flap)
cover (d-j) price $2.75
192pp. including titles, indicia etc. blank end pp, bound with endpapers between covered boards

(there is an oddity reported regarding the actual pagination of the first edition, which apparently includes two more unnumbered title (etc.) pp. in the accounting than are actually present (possibly arising from including the two sides of the front fly endpaper), giving the impression that there are 194pp. - or even 196pp, if the two sides of the rear fly endpaper be included for consistency.)

 bantam books mmpb first printing, first p/b edition

cover art by richard powers (unsigned, uncredited; attributed in ''the art of richard powers'' jane frank (2001), q.v.)
cover price 35¢
160pp. including titles, indica, etc, end pp. including author's postscript

distinguish from undated near-identical second printing, by presence/absence of line stating second printing in the publishing history
this reprint will have been no later than 1961, as bantam books mmpbs of this extent started being priced at 40¢, and being given cat#s with J alphabetical prefixes indicating this, during 1961.
