    Epic Illustrated 34, 8.0-8.5. Another great looking book with fresh qualities but some non-color breaking issues and a little bit of soiling on the back cover (visible in scan). As the last issue in the run, this issue is a little bit more challenging in high grade. Also, includes a chapter of “The Last Galactus Story” by John Byrne. It's a real cliffhanger! $30

    A Clockwork Orange   Anthony Burgess     Ballantine Books     U5032 1st PB Edition 1st Print 1965     $40

    Classic Dystopian JD/Sci Fi. Tough to get nice. The Amazing cover art is uncredited as far as I know.

    Fine Plus. Great spine with little wear. Glossy and nice looking with some creasing on front that doesn't break, light edgewear. A pretty copy over all.

    The Lurking Fear by H.P. Lovecraft    Avon Books 136    1947    $100

    Another "Stone Cold Classic"  First PB of this story/collection. Cover art by A. R. Tilburne swiped from Virgil Finlay's cover for Weird Tales, 1939

    Fine plus. Square, tight and solid. Killer color strike, there are a few very light creases that don't break color, light edgewear. Pages are off white and supple, inner covers white. A really beautiful copy, especially if you know how tough this book is without hard creases. I may regret selling

    Becky by Hank Janson Gold Star IL7-70 1st Edition 1st Print  1965   $25

    Lucked into another copy. Credited to Maguire in Warren but looks more like Harry Barton to me. Full length Good Girl cover art

    VF Minus     Super square and glossy. Tanning to inside cover, light crease on back cover that doesn't break color. Very nice looking.

    Another "Stone Cold Classic"

    Peeping Tom by Jack Woodford Novel Library No. 6   1948    $45

    Iconic peephole cover. My cover art crazy friends and I have been trying to figure out who "RB" is forever since he did several iconic Avons around this early time but no one knows :(

    Fine. Tight and solid with great color. Spine has slant and some stressing but covers are smooth with light bends, mostly on the back.

    Another "Stone Cold Classic"

    The Doll's Trunk Murder by Helen Reilly   Popular Library 211     1949       $85

    Iconic violent Rudolph Belarski Bondage/Headlights cover. Has become rare to find in any shape for good reason.

    I'm going to call it a qualified Fine Plus due to it being bound slightly askew. Bright and glossy with only a few very light creases. Small ding on the back cover. A few very light spots on cover. Still an unusually sharp cover with great color and corners.

    Passionate Princess by Jack Woodford  Novel Library No. 4 1948  $40

    Great early Golden Age Good Girl goodness from the Avon folks and a scarce one in condition. The cigarette holder does it for me.

    Fine plus. Square and bright. A few spine stresses, light edgewear. Store stamp on first page.
