- Frontispiece shows landscape at sea.

- The text story Snow White and the Seven Keys to Doomsday is a reference to the 1970s stage play Doctor Who and the Daleks in Seven Keys to Doomsday. The story itself is referenced in the televised episode Night Terrors which aired a few weeks after the annual was published; however, at the time the book was compiled, Night Terrors was scheduled to air before the annual's publication.
