 bar-code number truncated by too-small field: 0727400240 80035

n.b. the second, smaller element of the bar-code is the only part uniquely identifying this book - and, indeed, this printing - in this peculiar merkin (mis-)implementation of the bar-code number system, as applied to books - in theory.

(ace's five-digit cat# system that replaced their initial price code letter-plus-hree digit number system was indeed an inspired invention, a thing of wonder! -
- grosset & dunlap management may not've understood it - berkley-putnam's manglement certainly did not, and committed clichés - and chronoclasms - within it, as a result.)
