ppint. 12th Nov 2020		david: thank-you; it would appear that quartet books themselves lost count, dropping the reprinted 1974 line from the publishing history of the 1975, 1976 reprints. i'll^W i've revised my below listing of the quartet books printings accordingly.

David Whiteley 12th Nov 2020		ppint. There are actually four Quartet UK printings. I own two from 1974. On the back cover they both have UK prices 40p, The other prices are the same as well. The only difference between the two is that the second 1974 book states: Published by Quartet Books Limited 1974 Reprinted 1974. (this comment is from another edition of this book)
