Further Notes: Tuck's encyclopedia gives a 1968 SFBC edition of Clifford D. Simak's Why Call Them Back From Heaven in Volume 2 of his author listings, but not in the SFBC listing in Volume 3. Perhaps the Doubleday trade edition was offered to club members at a discount, as the book club does occasionally. Research has not uncovered a book club edition of this title.

She also states that "current membership in the SFBC is about 65,000." In October, the club begins offering an "alternate selection", a title that is not automatically sent to members.
