Yes and no. It won the Hugo in 1967, but it was the runner up in 1966. I don't know the backstory as to how it got nominated twice, but I suspect it came out in a different form, somehow. 
I don't think it's fair that it should be here as long as it won.
Okay. So I voted nominees up from the beginning to 1993. And I think there are books to remove as well - but that's for another time
