"Adjustment Team" isn't a true first edition in the collector's sense as a magazine story but would be if it had been in a (single story?) chap book or so no need to brackett "true first". Clear for this but may need to investigate further for some other items. E.g., what does true first mean in reference to a pair of stories first published as such in a chapbook? Ultramarine Press may have info on website if it has a website.

For visible caption under image piping it after thumb and before piping alt text might be the thing to do.
