Notes:
- "First Edition: December, 1956 / First Bal-Hi Printing: April, 1966". There is no number line.
- The back cover states "This is an original publication–not a reprint." However, it is a reprint of the December, 1956 edition.
- The is no stated artist credit nor is a signature visible. The source of the Richard Powers credit is the earlier Ballantine printing which uses the same artwork and is signed "Powers." The artwork for this later printing was cropped.
- "This printing also appears with a version that has the letters "AEP" in black directly under the catalog number on the cover, meaning unknown." Verification copy does not have an "AEP".
- The story More Spinned Against... is stated with the trailing ellipsis ("...") at the beginning of the story. However the ellipsis is not included in the table of contents, copyright page, nor the page headers for the story.
