In the mid-1970s, Angus Wells edited several British single-author "Best of" Collections. As current ISFDB rules credit these only to the author of the stories, here is a list of titles that would also have Angus's name on if we included cover Editor credits. Many of the books were reprinted in multiple volumes, and as Amazon (for one) are particularly bad at noting whether a book is the complete collection or just part of it (often claiming one of the partial volumes is a reprint of the complete collection), the known splits are also included.

Typically Sidgwick & Jackson published the original hardcover complete collections, Sphere did the paperback versions and the split versions in smaller paperbacks.
