Bibliographic Comments for the series: The Fontana Book of Great Horror Stories

AbeBooks dealer listings with cover photos show:

• The Fontana Book of Great Horror Stories
• The Fontana Book of Great Horror Stories (3rd printing - has a different cover)
• Second Fontana Book of Great Horror Stories (Yes, there is no leading "The". One copy has a clear 3/6 in the lower right though that looks like a sticker. Another copy has "85¢" in the same area and it too looks like a sticker.)
• The 2nd Fontana Book of Great Horror Stories (different cover than "Second Fontana Book of Great Horror Stories". Reported as 2nd and 6th printing)
• The Third Fontana Book of Great Horror Stories (no cover but verified for 2nd printing)
• The 3rd Fontana Book of Great Horror Stories (no cover but dealer listings for 4th through 10th printing tend to use "3rd")
• The 4th Fontana Book of Great Horror Stories
• The 5th Fontana Book of Great Horror Stories (The Beagle 95199 reprint uses the same cover as Fontana and has 80¢ printed on the upper/right corner)
• The 6th Fontana Book of Great Horror Stories
• The 8th Fontana Book of Great Horror Stories

It seems that by the time Fontana got to the 4th book that they had standardized on decimal numbering and that the reprints of the second and third book used decimal numbering. With at least the second and third books they were priced using stickers in the lower right corner for both the US and UK markets. Thus copies exist with no stated price.
