 avon books mmpb first printing (probably simultaneous first printings°)

reprint anthology of six short stories and three novelettes, foreword by george ernsberger

cover art by gray morrow (?signed?, credited)
cover price 60¢
176pp. including titles, indica, table-of-contents etc, end pp. advertising

° - prob'ly also exists with canadadian-printed carcass intended for distribution north of the parallel
but i've no record of having seen one such, nor seen this reported:

should any bookcatter being so good as to check the indica of the copy they hold find it states the carcass or ''book'' was printed in canada,
please post a comment ''here'' giving the wording with which this is stated.
- thanking you in advance; love, ppint.
