Does it have the same cover as the first printing? My copy is
a fourth and has a different cover and shows the date of the
second printing as March 1955. I doubt there was a Canadian
only printing, it's more likely to have been a smaller print
run.
Great job on the cover. It caught my eye. I design CD covers
myself, but I often thought I'd like to do a book
jacket.
