No book-club issue points specific to this title are documented in the sources consulted; the general tells apply and should be checked. On the US side, a Doubleday/Macmillan-era book-club copy typically shows an unpriced jacket flap or "Book Club Edition" printed at the flap, a blind stamp debossed into the rear board near the spine, and a lighter, smaller bulk than the trade issue. The Collier Books (1988, c1950) and R. Bentley (1981) issues are later reprints, not book clubs, and are frequently miscatalogued as firsts because they carry the 1949/1950 copyright date.
