Notes: • "Permabooks edition published January, 1954" • "1st printing.....December, 1953"; no number line • The artist is not credited, powers is on the artwork • The Editor's Preface and the eight "notes" that precede each story are written as if the tales are a true history. • The cover states: "A startling novel of the far future..." but with the multiple copyright dates of previously released materials that City is "based" on, it seems more a fix-up. • Printed in the US
