- Notes:
- Third printing of the original 1952 edn. (2nd printing was 1953.)
Either for the 2nd printing, or this one, the text has been reset & a couple of the smaller illustrations have been removed. (At least one of the removed illustrations is repeated elsewhere in the book).
As a result, this printing/edition is 4 pages shorter cf the 1952 first printing.
(Worldcat implies it was this printing that was reset, because the Worldcat record for the 1953 printing has "233 pages".) - Has a dust jacket.
- Cover artist not noted, but the signature looks like "Whittam". (There is a G. Whittam in ISFDB - working this era.)
- Third printing of the original 1952 edn. (2nd printing was 1953.)
