. Collectors of these genres have found the Ace doubles an attractive set of books to collect, because of the unusual appearance of the
tête-bêche format. This is particularly true for the science fiction books, for which several bibliographic references have been written (see the

Because the tête-bêche format is part of the attraction for collectors, some do not regard as true Ace Doubles those books published between 1974 and 1978, which contain two works by one or two authors bound traditionally rather than back-to-back and upside-down (
tête-bêche format). All volumes containing two SF works, in the entire 1952 to 1978 series, are listed below, with the late change in format noted.
Each listing gives a publication date; in all cases, that is year of publication by Ace, with the given catalog number, not earliest publication date of the contents. The list is complete for books containing two science fiction titles. Number D-13 in the official series, listed in
Miscellaneous Ace Doubles, contains one novel, ''Cry Plague!'' by
Theodore S. Drachman, which can be regarded as science fiction. Therefore some science fiction collectors treat D-13 the first science fiction Ace Double, although the novel on the other side of the book is a mystery, ''The Judas Goat'' by
