Cover is a photograph of Isaac Asimov. Even though George Scithers was the editor of the magazine at the time of this anthology's publication, there is no indication in this publication that he made the selections.
Artwork for "Dance Band on the Titanic" is mistakenly credited to Frank Kelly Freas in the Table of Contents. Artist's signature is clearly "Freff". TOC lists artwork for "Air Raid" but none appears.
