[nesfa-reading-group] which version?

[Wesley Brodsky]

I have read the Project Gutenberg version. The first page reads “ The Project Gutenberg eBook of Police Your Planet”. There should be information on the publisher and publication date of any version on the first few pages.

ISFDB says  that Police Your Planet exists in (at least) three versions: the magazine original of 1953, the "abridged" version published in book form in 1956, and the "rewritten" version that I remember coming into the MITSFS in 1975. Which version(s) have people been reading? Project Gutenberg has the 1956 version, which brings to mind a live performance of "30,000 Pounds of Bananas"; did anyone dig up either of the others?
