• "First published in Great Britain in 1974 by Weidenfeld & Nicholson" on copyright page. According to Currey, other than the misspelling of "Nicholson" , this is a Publisher's error as the hardcover did not come out until March 1975. • "Orbit Edition first published in 1974 by Futura" • No statement of printing, no number line. • Month of publication from Currey and Contento1. • Artist credit from Contento1. • $2.40 in Australia and New Zealand; $2.95 in Canada. • In addition to the Section Introductions, each story has a very brief (2-5 line) prefatory comment by Aldiss. • The last story, Night Watch has the word Envoi above the title. Contento has this as a section title. The other sections have separate contents pages and introductions, this does not.
