ppint.
14th Jun 2020
 reprint collection of five novelelettes, all reprinted from issues of if.

simultaneous first edition/printings sharing merkin-printed covers and hence also cat#,

cover art by richard powers (signed)
cover price 60¢
160pp. including titles, indica etc, end pp.

cover strap-line inaccurately adds "and other science fiction novellas".

refer to indica to see if carcass of copy held was canadadian- or merkin- printed
no priority established nor liable to be, both stating a macfadden book .... 1966

contents:
the frozen planet (novelette) keith laumer (vol.11 #4, 9/1961)
growing season (ntte) f. l. wallace (vol.8 #6, 7/1959)
cinderella story (ntte) allen kim many (vol.11 #2, 5/1961 (strato/thorpe & porter bre #10))
the quality of mercy (ntte) daniel keyes (vol.10 #5, 11/1960 (strato/thorpe & porter bre #7)
gleaners (ntte) clifford d. simak (vol.10 #1, 3/1960 (strato/thorpe & porter bre #3)


near-identical second macfadden books mmpb printings sharing merkin-printed covers 6/1970:
cover art by jack faragasso (credited on back cover)
cat# 75-340
cover price 75¢
160pp. including titles, indica etc.
refer to indica to see if carcass of copy held was canadadian- or merkin- printed
no priority established nor liable to be, publishing history of both stating
first printing ... february 1966
second printing ... june 1970
the inaccurate front cover strap-line is retained from that of the first edition/printings

whole, unmarked copies of the second macfadden books printing are common in the uk, strongly suggesting it was imported in considerable number by a uk news wholesaler and distributed to retail news agents, or bought in bulk as a remainder by f. w. woolworth ltd, or both.
