 daw books near-identical first printings sharing merkin-printed covers, and hence also cat#°,

cover art by eric ladd (signed, credited)
b+w frontispiece by jack gaughan (signed with his jg monogram)
near-meaningless daw books collectors number 312
cover price $1.95 (us-carcassed copies)
cover price $2.25 (canadian-carcassed copies)°
224pp. (check) including titles, indicia etc; glossary (fictional nf)

refer to indicia to see if carcass of copy held was canadadian- or merkin- printed.
no priority established nor liable to be, both bear first printing date, full number-string, 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

° - n.b. second letter of cat# of canadian-carcassed & distributed copies not varied to indicate change from merkin cover price of $1.95 ("publishers!") (this in fact seems to be the norm for daw books first printings split in this way).

1/1981 (date from locus #242, 3/1981) third printing by number-string cat# UE1593 changes to cover art by david mattingly (cf. daw books' 1/1981 editions of #1 & #2), drops near-meaningless daw books collectors number from cover, raises cover price to $2.25; this will presumably be a new bookcat item when eventually added.
