 the hearst corporation avon books mmpb simultaneous first printings, not first mmpb edition

cover art by gene szafran (signed szafran, uncredited)
cover price $1.25
208pp. including titles, indicia etc, end p. advertising

refer to indicia publishing history to see if carcass of copy held was canadadian- or merkin- printed
no priority established nor liable to be, both state first avon printing, april, 1975

the canadian printing bears an isbn on the indicia page, 0-380-00299-X
I have not entered this in the isbn10 field as during this period avon books mmpb printings intended solely for distribution north of the parallel frequently - possibly always - bore a different isbn from that given to the wholly merkin-printed mmpb intended for general distribution, and i have not checked this latter. single printings intended for distribution both north and south of the parallel started to bear two different (i)sbns, and two different cover prices, one designated in canada.

 transworld publishers corgi books printing near-identical with the 1969 third corgi books printing:

cover art uncredited, unsigned
cover price 3s. 6d., 45c south africa, 60c australia, 55c new zealand
so should be re-flagged "international" according to respected moderator's rule
or not so re-flagged , according to a respected moderator's heartfelt plea
176pp. including titles, indicia etc, end pp. advertising

check indicia printing history for presence/absence of line after:
corgi edition published 1963
reissued 1966
reissued 1969

and to establish the copy held is in fact the 1970 fourth corgi p/b printing on same sbn, which differs:
cover price 4s., 50c south africa, 65c australia, 65c new zealand
publishing history adds line:
corgi edition reprinted 1970

 this seems to be the third corgi p/b, or a second printing of the third corgi p/b edition,
the first p/b on this sbn9 being published in 1969.
