 surname in the title is "... ridolph", not ".. ridulph".

 n.b. the 1980 daw books editions of the eponymous collection contain eight of the ten magnus ridolph stories, and is significantly longer, adding two further novelettes; so these should not be linked as identical.

 dennis dobson first printing, first uk edition, first h/cvr edition

reprint collection of five short stories and a novelette, six of the ten tales about this busy wight...

cover (d-j) art by richard weaver
cover (d-j) price £3.95 (check it's the original price, & not a dobson price gun label°)
148pp? (check) including titles, indicia, table-of-contents etc.°, end pp, bound with endpapers between covered boards

° - i didn't think to note, either, in 1977, whether dennis dobson reprinted jack gaughan's interior illustrations or no - probably, as it'd've been easier than cutting the six (or seven, including the frontispiece) when offsetting from the ace mmpb, and the pagination matches this - ''but - ''. . .

 first edition.

this book is not a reprint nor is it a republication of the significantly shorter 1966 ace books half ''ace double'' of the same title, q.v., and should not be linked directly to it as being identical.
