 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.
