Comments and Reviews


ppint. 1st Aug 2020		near-identical first edition, priority stated on the indica page. boards' covering undecorated cover (d-j) art by milton glaser



ppint. 29th Dec 2020		the barcode number has been truncated by the too-small field: 07802100275 16876 the last five digits of the first block are the cover price in cents; only the second block is unique to this book. (this comment is from another edition of this book)



23skidoo 2nd Aug 2020		@ ppint. Agreed the cover artist is still a mystery on the Playboy Press paperback. The way the female character's face is drawn is reminiscent of Frank Frazetta but I can find no indication he did this. You probably got this info from the same place I just did, but Farmer's official website indicates that the artist is unknown. (this comment is from another edition of this book)



ppint. 1st Aug 2020		cover art unsigned, uncredited; sfaik still as-yet unattributed cover price $2.75 352pp. including titles, indica etc. numbered up to xxii; 2 end pp. advertising other playboy press titles (this comment is from another edition of this book)



ppint. 1st Aug 2020		includes the article, "a case of identity or the case of the seven claytons" h. w. starr the baker street journal 1/1960 as per popular library mmpb (1973 & 1981 reprint), after main text, as addendum 1. (this comment is from another edition of this book)



David Whiteley ● 1st Aug 2020		Mine is a 1975 2nd UK edition No mention on cover of "° Australia recommended price only" (this comment is from another edition of this book)



ppint. 28th Feb 2018		near-identical 1974 first and 1975 second printings sharing sbn, and cover art by richard clifton-dey (uncredited, unsigned, attribution from jane frank) cover price 60p, °australia & new zealand $1.90 (1974 first printing) cover price 60p, °australia $1.80, new zealand $1.80, canada $2.50 (1975 second printing) so these editions 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 376pp? including titles, indica etc, end pp. advertising ° australia recommended price only see also indica publishing history for presence/absence of line stating "reprinted 1975" to determine which printing is held.
