Notes:
- Tuck gives the publisher as "Kemsley". OCLC gives it as "Kemsley Newspapers", but dates it as [1949?] (the date of the original Fell hardcover edition), so it must be physically undated.
- Several abebooks.com dealers give the publisher as Cherry Tree, but this may be either a publisher series or imprint. WorldCat calls it a "Cherry Tree Book".
- Cover artist from an abebooks.com listing.
