  • Publication: The Return of TarzanPublication Record # 390163
  • Author: Edgar Rice Burroughs
  • Date: 1951-00-00
  • Catalog ID: 19
  • Publisher: Goulden
  • Price:
    2/-?Prior to decimilisation (1968-1971), UK books were priced in shillings, or shillings and pence, where 20 shillings equals one pound and 12 old pence equals one shilling. Shillings were indicated with a variety of suffixes, e.g. 3s, 3', 3", 3/ all mean 3 shillings. Any number after that is additional pence, usually 6 (half a shilling) but sometimes 3 or 9 (a quarter of a shilling or three-quarters of a shilling).
  • Pages: 136
  • Format:
    pb?Paperback. Typically 7" by 4.25" (18 cm by 11 cm) or smaller, though trimming errors can cause them to sometimes be slightly (less than 1/4 extra inch) taller or wider/deeper.
  • Type: NOVEL
  • Notes: Tuck states that there were two editions in 1951, but only lists the 2/- price. The found cover image looks like the book was repriced. Henry Hardy Heins' A Golden Anniversary Bibliography of Edgar Rice Burroughs lists only one edition, published 5/51 with a price of 1/6 and a separate publication record exists for that edition. This record is to account for the 2nd 1951 edition mentioned in Tuck. Cover based on the dust jacket illustration from Land of Terror by John Coleman Burroughs.
