ppint. 5th Nov 2018		number in isbn13 field is just a repeat of the isbn10 and should be deleted isbn13ses weren't invented yet for another couple of decades. (this comment is from another edition of this book)



ppint. 30th Aug 2018		title has an exclamation mark: "timestop!". (this comment is from another edition of this book)



ppint. 26th Feb 2018		date presumably taken from megavore/science fiction collector #10 (1980); n.b. title ends with a ''shriek''(!) (this comment is from another edition of this book)

ppint. 26th Feb 2018		near-identical editions/printings sharing merkin-printed covers and hence also cat#, cover art by frank kelly freas (signed "kf", uncredited) cover price 60¢ 192pp. including titles, indica etc. refer to indica to check whether the carcass of the copy you hold was canadadian- or merkin- printed. no priority established nor now liable to be, both stating a lancer book • 1968. text needs checking against that of the 1960 galaxy sf novel #43/beacon books mmpb, "a woman a day" q.v., as the pagination differs greatly. (this comment is from another edition of this book)
