asked:
Was this book, Hrolf Kraki's Saga, ever published in hardcover? Who published it in hardcover? (It looks like it was not published in hardcover but, as we know, Ballantine Adult Fantasy like other publishers that followed the same model, operated under a license whereby it only published paperbacks a year after the original work was released in hardcover.)

No, Ballantine actually published a lot of books that came out in paperback first. A lot of genre publishers did that because the market for hardback specfic wasn't there at the time.

It goes without saying I am looking for an informed answer not a discussion.
