Interior illustrations by Esteban Moroto
51546 -0 The Magic Goes Away Larry Niven Sci-Fi 1979 c.1978; 1979 Boris Vallejo This edition is listed as "First Mass-Market Edition!" and has a banner advertising the "Massively Illustrated" nature of this edition.  The publication history for this ACE Letter-Number is a bit confusing.  The copyright page has first mass-market printing as October 1979, but as yet no-one seems to have one with a full number line. The trade paperback was printed twice, but neither printing had a number line, although both identify dates in 1978. The third mass market printing [by number line] identifies a second mass market printing as November 1979, but gives no other date for itself (Thank you Bill) - but regardless, ACE once again provides another headache.
51547 -9 The Magic Goes Away Larry Niven Sci-Fi 1981 c.1978; 1979; 1981; 5th ACE printing Boris Vallejo Note that this volume has a particular banner (lower right) that is found on the ACE 51552-5 edition. Also, the number line ends with ‘5’ as the lowest number, but it may actually be the sixth overall printing. Which then begs the question:  where's the edition identified as a fourth edition …..
51548 -7 The Magic May Return Larry Niven Sci-Fi 1983 c.1981; 1983; 1st ACE printing and PBO Alicia Austin Interior illustrations - about 40 - by Alicia Austin

Eve Zumwalt

and Diane LaPoint
ACE Gothic Novel nd c.1975; nd Headlined as "An ACE Double Cameo" with a cameo medallion in the banner caption. These are priced at $2.25. This is actually an ACE Double with a single cover. This appears to be the only "double" issue in the Cameo series and was not referenced in the source that I found concerning this series. I also find it annoying that they did not use the "came ring" motif that is found in the ACE Gothic Cameo series.

Dickson's Necromancer (see above).  This was fixed (kind of) for the actual published edition of Tepper's Necromancer Nine, but only for the front cover and spine.
Listed as sequel to King's Blood Four.  It appears (thank you Bill) that this volume is a bit of challenge.  If you look at the cover art image (wraparound) you will note that the ISBN block on the back has the ACE Letter-

58417 -9 Hawk & Fisher Simon Green ACE fantasy Louis Royo Simon Green is also the author of the "Nightside" fantasy series.

Update - 13 February 2021.  The book was released in the UK by Headline [a month before the Ace edition] and the title was “No Haven for the Guilty” - so perhaps the ACE Letter-Number series was assigned before the title change ….. (thank you Bill for this information).
