The Weinbaum Memorial Volume "First Edition" so stated on copyright page. Issued without dustjacket. Extremely rare. 500 copies were printed, but only 250 were bound (See Tuck). Of the 250, five have an introduction by Raymond A. Palmer, the rest have a different introduction by Lawrence A. Keating. [Currey] "Daddy!" by Jack L. Chalker in Fantasy Newsletter No. 61, August 1983 claims that 6 copies of the book with Palmer's introduction were retained according to the publisher Conrad Ruppert and letters from the Milwaukee Fictioneers; Ruppert was still alive and publishing in 1983. Even at that time, only 5 copies could be accounted for. Worldcat indicates that the publisher is not identified. Rupert is per Miller/Contento, though they also list it as Milwaukee Fictioneers in another context. Tuck lists his name in parentheses. Reginald identifies the publisher as "Milwaukee Fictioneers"
