I agree that's probably the set Mike wants, but I should point out that
there are others: I have an Arrow edition from around 1987 with
(unexciting) covers by one Peter Andrew Jones. There was also an earlier
edition (not sure if this was also by Arrow) with rather nice covers by
(I think) Bruce Pennington.
