In the final volume, McMillan discussed Fredric Brown material that was still uncollected, with particular reference to a column that Brown wrote from 1937 to 1946 called The Proofreaders' Page, mentioning that these would "take a book in themselves". Twenty years later that book was published, including both the columns and a selection of other uncollected fiction, poetry and non-fiction as:
The Proofreaders' Page and Other Uncollected Items (2011), ISBN978-1-105-03045-1, published by Galactic Central Publications
