Yeah Munge that's a good one. I have two copies in my library. It was first printed in 1954. I have the 2nd printing of that from 1956, and the 4th printing in 1962 which was revised and has a different cover.

Cosmic you must have an extensive collection too.

Good to hear from you both. Thanks for checking out the books.
