The three US editions of this were issued in a total of 23 printings in the period 1942-71. The script for the first edition was written by Evelyn Goodman; the front cover interior was pencilled by Louis Zansky; it was inked by Fred Eng. Twelve printings of this edition were issued, six while the series title was Classic Comics, and six under the new series title Classics Illustrated (from March 1947). All printings of this first edition had a drawn front cover, while all printings of later editions had painted covers. The second edition (Nov. 1955) had the same contents as the first edition, but with a painted cover by Victor Prezio. Only this one printing of the second edition was issued, but Prezio's cover was retained in the third edition (Jan. 1957), which was illustrated by Jack Sparling and had a script by an unknown writer. Ten printings of the third US edition were issued. All Danish (perhaps all European) printings are translations of the third US edition.
