LA Bantam - The Green Death and Other Stories

The 22nd book published by Bantam Publications is The Green Death and Other Stories by Brett Hutton. I can find no sources for the stories.

In common with all but one of Bantam's books The Green Death is 100 pages long and is 110 mm (4 5/16") wide by 152 mm (6") tall. Cover and pages are made from high acid pulp paper. The page collation is:

[1] title page,
[2] copyright and contents page,
3-70 The Green Death,
71-85 The Man Who Would Not Fight,
86-100 Legionnaires of Death.

The copyright date is 1940. 

In common with most LA Bantams there are variant covers, four with text and one illustrated. The text covers are strong blue/light blue, strong blue/light gray, strong blue/light yellowish green and strong yellowish green/light blue. The first two text and illustrated covers are below.
