The Girl, the Gold Watch & Everything

John D. MacDonald

First published December 1962
Type Novel

According to Wikipedia, "A second comma was added to the title (after "Watch") with the second printing, and dropped again with the 14th printing. The only English-language printing that used "and" instead of an ampersand (&) was the Coronet Books printing published by Hodder Fawcett Ltd. in the United Kingdom (1968)." As at 2023-08-04 the above comment had been deleted from Wikipedia. Furthermore, the comment probably refers to the titles as stated on the front covers. The titles on the title pages of the Gold Medal first printing (1962-12-00) and Gold Medal third printing (1965-09-00) are identical and contain no commas at all. Checked by primary verification.
