City

The UK Science Fiction Book Club issued City in 1961 by arrangement with Weidenfeld & Nicolson, London; its jacket carries no printed price at the flap. Later SFBC reprints also circulate, including the SFBC 50th Anniversary Collection volume. The controlling caution is Gnome Press house practice: the press routinely left "First Edition" standing on reissues and, in some cases, left another publisher's first-edition statement in place when it reprinted that publisher's book — so on a Gnome title the statement alone is never sufficient and the physical book must be examined. For City specifically, the Gnome Press bibliography records only a single printing.
