 near-identical editions/printings sharing merkin-printed covers and hence also isbn, cat#,

cover art & b+w frontispiece by michael whelan
near-meaningless daw books number 508
cover price $2.95
304pp. ?including titles, indica etc.

check indica for printing history number-string length following statement of first printing date:
number-string of actual first printing: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
number-string of 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 indicates copy held is from the third printing, date not stated and is yet to be established

but cover price of probable, but as-yet unreported third printing is likely to differ:
cover price $3.50 (?)
reference to indica should reveal a printing history number-string, 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
plus a statement that the cover was printed in usa, book (=carcass) was printed in canada

if you discover you hold a copy of this printing, please post its details here, noting especially the actual values of any that differ from those i've conjectured: thank-you - ppint.
