We’ve seen this listed elsewhere as Peter Haining’s first anthology, but Vault are not convinced. The confusion seems to have arisen from the fact that an earlier edition was published by Sidgwick & Jackson as The Hell Of Mirrors (1974). This is not the same The Hell Of Mirrors as that published by New English Library/ Four Square in 1965!
Thanks to Alwyn Turner of Trash Fiction for providing the cover scan and contents.
