    16/-?Prior to decimilisation (1968-1971), UK books were priced in shillings, or shillings and pence, where 20 shillings equals one pound and 12 old pence equals one shilling. Shillings were indicated with a variety of suffixes, e.g. 3s, 3', 3", 3/ all mean 3 shillings. Any number after that is additional pence, usually 6 (half a shilling) but sometimes 3 or 9 (a quarter of a shilling or three-quarters of a shilling).

    • Price from review in "The Dreaming Child" by William Buchan, The Spectator 1966-11-11 p628.
    • WorldCat (OCLC, below) reports ISBN 0575001771, perhaps a later printing.
    • Publication date and image are from the product page for this ISBN at Amazon UK 2019-09-17 as "Gollancz; First American Edition edition (1 Sept. 1966)". UK publisher Gollancz is named at the bottom of the spine. For this ISBN Amazon US displays a matching front jacket, spine not legible, as "Victor Gollancz; Fourth impression edition (1973)". The Wikipedia novel article displays a matching front jacket as that of the first edition, Gollancz 1966, reported by dealer at ABEbooks (2011, not found 2019).
    • We suppose the cover artist is interior illustrator Hughes. Compare the 1975 Puffin cover art, verified as by Hughes.
