ISBN printed on rear flap of dustwrapper as 0 905310 420 (which gives a bad checksum); 0 905310 37 3 on copyright page. Large format (approximately 11"x11"). According to Locus #247 (August 1981), it appeared in July 1981. [Uncertain as to whether that referes to the hardback or paperback edition]. Almost every other page is either a full-page color illustration or a double-page spread. None of the artwork is individually credited. All is credited to "Young Artists" on the copyright page. Each of the ten sections of the book has artwork by one artist. Most of the artists can be deduced from external sources, such as Tony Roberts' site, several Fleuve Noir Anticipations covers (Les Edwards, Stuart Hughes, Richard Clifton-Dey), a Bastei Lübbe cover (Alan Craddock) and comicsvalue.com (Terry Oakes). Alan Daniels is identified from style and signature AD. Howard Levitt may be one of the two remaining artists. PV1's copy has price clipped dustwrapper.
