8/6^?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).

Type: ANTHOLOGY
Cover: Tomorrow's Universe by John Richards
Notes:
- "American Science Fiction" on book spine and jacket spine, but not on title page. "An anthology of outstanding American Science Fiction" on jacket front.
- No date on copyright page, just:
  - "This book is copyright and no portion of it may be reproduced without the written consent of its publisher"
  - "PANTHER BOOKS are Printed in Great Britain and Published by HAMILTON & CO. (STAFFORD) LTD."
- Tuck says published in 1953. Both Contento and Cole's Checklist of Science Fiction Anthologies say published May 1954. Lending credence to the later date, two of the stories were first published in 1953 magazines (Chad Oliver's "The Shore of Tomorrow" in the March 1953 Startling Stories, and Kris Neville's "It Pays to Advertise" in the June 1953 F&SF.)
- Price per Tuck. (PV1 has clipped bottom corner on jacket front flap.)
