Avon (T-345) [1st printing] 1959 paperback. Cover by Victor Kalin (signature at bottom right), 174 pages, 35 cent cover price. Condition is near-Fine: very tight and square with flat spine, age tanning is very mild and uniform (much less than expected for this vintage); 1/2" at middle left of front cover next to spine. No stamps marks or writing - a very clean copy that looks unread.

The Lonely Planet
If You Was a Moklin
The Castaway
Proxima Centauri
Nobody Saw the Ship
The Trans-Human
