From the introduction: "Bio One was created in 1974 to incorporate a degree of realism into a field of wargaming which was sorely lacking. Bio One provides a complete and accurate system of damage location and effects for any gunpowder period of warfare. Bio One will prove an interesting addition to any set of man-to-man rules which uses gun fire. Bio One may at first appear confusing, but by simply following the step-by-step procedure and trying a few sample applications, the system will be mastered in no time at all."

The first printing with a $2.00 cover price - later catalog listings show the price at $2.50 (such as Boot Hill 2nd print and other Bio One prints). The products list includes The Character Archaic, etc.
Considering this list, the printing seems to date around 1975.

This example appears identical in every way to the first sample listed above except in the cover paper. This example has a smooth cover as opposed to the textured cover on the first sample above. The color is also more saturated--mint green opposed to sea-foam green. It is unknown whom follows whom.
