 printed & made for white lion publishers by hendington ltd., deadbrook lane, aldershot hants.

(posted because i don't recall this printer's name from the seventies - or any other time; and because it's possible they may've been more closely connected with the publisher aside of simply having printed & bound (? some of?) the books they published. tbi.)
