Indexer Notes

This story was written at very short notice after an instruction Kanigher noted on the cover proof, to adjust some element of the picture, was misinterpreted and a caption added as if a story called "Drop an Inch" was included in the book. Kanigher therefore wrote a story to fit the title.
