 possibly j. m. dent & sons readers union group° the science fiction book club h/cvr first printing
for sale to members of the book club only, upon subscription by mail-order (later also to members of associated book clubs as an option)
° dent bought the sfbc incorporating it in their readers union group of book clubs in 1966

cover (d-j) art by john griffiths (the last appearance of variations upon his ''the blob'')
cover (d-j) price
208pp. including titles, indicia etc, bound with endpapers between covered boards

later (c. 12/1972) renumbered cat# 5027 by david & charles; but since neither cat# is on the book, and the original 110 appears only on the d-j spine, this is unlikely to cause any great conniptions

cover art by peter tybus (art is signed ''TY'')
cover price 85p, eire 94½p (?), malta 90c, australia $2.75, new zealand $2.75
so should be re-flagged "international" according to respected moderator's rule
- or not so re-flagged, according to equally well-respected moderator's heartfelt plea
192pp. including titles, indica etc, end pp. advertising
