Note: An imprint/division of William Collins, Sons & Co. Limited, and subsequent owners thereof. The trademark expired 29 June 2006 although it hadn't been used for SF for some years anyway.
Main ISBN Prefixes: 058620, 058606, 058621, 058607, 024612, 024613, 058605 etc - some of which were reused by later owners or were inherited from previous, or covered other imprints such as Panther and Triad.
Publishing history warning:
One thing to note about Grafton imprint publications is that they will often list ALL prior editions by ANY imprint owned by Collins at the time. Very useful, except that they list them all as by Grafton. E.g. for the first "Foundation and Empire" printing of 1990 their edition says "Published by Grafton Books 1962. Reprinted 1964, 1965, 1966, 1967, 1968, 1969 (twice), 1971 (twice), 1973 (twice), 1974, 1975, 1976, 1977, 1978, 1979 (twice), 1981, 1982, 1983 (three times), 1984, 1985, 1986, 1987, 1988 (twice), 1989 (twice), 1990". This actually covers all THESE printings we have recorded: and therefore casts a little doubt about our 1972 edition but confirms others.
