"This edition is the original, complete and unexpurgated Paris edition. It is the only one allowed to be sold in countries other than the U.S.A., U.K. and Commonwealth"--Vol. 1, page 4 of cover.

"In all respects save for the wrappers, this edition is completely identical to the September 1959 Traveller's companion edition with the more familiar olive-green wrappers ... it is reasonable to assume that this cheap 'popular' edition was put on the market to forestall wider European distribution of American or British editions"--Kearney, P.J. Paris Olympia Press (new ed.), pages 200-201.
