- Amazon as of 2018-04-13:
• Publ date 1977-11-17, pbk format, cover image from Amazon UK (as 40 pp) and US (as 48 pp), both for this ISBN.
• As ASIN B01HC0N1GK both Amazon UK and US provide an image of the frontispiece and title page.
• Amazon US provides another image of this ed. (wrong) as ISBN 0517532662 (with other data for the 1st US trade ed., correctly) --namely the "Stock image" displayed for many listings of the wrong book at ABEbooks
Numerous listings of 1977/1978 chapbooks at ABEbooks provide some description or some bookseller image; jointly they are decisive on most points. But many listings display a thumbnail "Stock image" of the wrong ed., and several of those if not others state the wrong ISBN. - Front cover illustration is that of the frontispiece, there with caption (two lines, quote): Figure I. The Wasp in a Wig. Reconstruction after Tenniel by Ken Leeder.
