ppint. 23rd Aug 2024		the date of this edition may require emendation to 1972/3 (or very closely thereunto); world distributors (manchester), with whom pbs ltd. seem to have had a very close relationship, ceased to distribute five star p/bs and started distributing their own ensign books p/bs in 1974.
