 simultaneous near-identical printings sharing merkin-printed covers, and hence cat#, isbn,

cover art by john berkey retained from first daw books printing
cover price $2.50 (canadadian-carcassed copies)
cover price $2.25 (wholly merkin-printed copies)
near-meaningless daw books number dropped from front cover
176pp. including titles, indica etc, end p. advertising

refer to indica to see if carcass of copy held was canadadian- or merkin- printed
no priority in publication date established, nor liable to be,
but canadadian-carcassed printing is given as fourth printing by number line,
wholly merkin-printed edition as third by printing history number line.
