together with the uk p/b "all the traps of earth" (1964), q.v., "the night of the puudly" (1964) republishes the complete contents of the 1962 merkin hardcover first edition of the "all the traps of earth" collection, q.v., re-titling "good night, mr james" as "the night of the puudly". (this comment is from another edition of this book)
n.b. the title on both the cover and the spine of this edition is, in error, "the night of puudly", rather than "the night of the puudly" as on the title page, etc. - and throughout both the previous new english library's four square edition's printings.
