POHLSTARS. New York: Ballantine Books, [1984]. Octavo, red wrappers printed in black. Advance copy (uncorrected proof) of the first edition. Twelve stories with introduction and story notes by Pohl.

The proof has one more story than UK edition, "The Wizard-masters of Peng-shi Angle (né The Wizards of Pung's Corners)." "Short stories from the 1970s and 1980s which prove that Pohl, even in his umpteenth collection, is still a considerable writer in the SF field. Notable items include 'Spending a Day at the Lottery Fair," "We Purchased People" and 'The Sweet, Sad Queen of the Grazing Isles' (though this last is scarcely SF)." - Pringle, The Ultimate Guide to Science Fiction, second edition (1995), p. 284.
