The Bantam, red cover paperback edition in the states went through several large printings during the mid to late '60s when I bought mine, so I'm surprised that they're not more common. I imagine though, that if you combed through used bookstores' racks upon racks of paperbacks or their regular fiction shelves where paperback and hardcover are often mixed you're bound to find one sooner or later. We're not talking hens' teeth here so just perservere and dive into whatever stacks of second hand paperbacks you come across - try the Salvation Army as well. ...and let me know if you ever come across that record Little Shirly Beans... - Ed __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
