Maybe they used the obsolete Shilling stamp rather than a normal non-returnable stamp to try and catch who was returning what should have been non returnable material? It could give them a tracking mechanism of some sort on where the books had been if they used different stamps. Admittedly, that's a wild guess, we've shown they don't make much sense any other way, either...

I remember when Star Blazers first came out in the US, I loved it so much that I actually voluntarily got up early so I had the half hour to watch it uninterrupted, rather than try and see it while eating breakfast and getting ready for school. I was in 3rd grade at the time.

The Unnamable Writer: PKD appreciation thread
OtherEric replied to OtherEric's topic in Pulp Magazines
Love the A Maze of Death, it's one of four PKD SF novels I don't have either a true 1st, a BCE, or a 1st paperback edition of. A couple more covers I don't think we've seen here yet: -

It would be a Crime not to post your Detective Pulps

New Jersey Post Office? That's 100% a wild guess... -
Merlin being imprisoned in a tree is definitely one of (several) classic fates attributed to Merlin. I recognized it, at least.

In today. Only 4 Four Colors with Looney Tunes to go, and only one Porky Pig. That's #16, the Porky Pig #1. Which will generally cost more than #48 with Carl Barks art, but is actually easier to find from what I've seen. -

Two more today. Both 1st print, non-Book Club editions. Up to 33 1st edition PKD books in my collection now. -
I can now, thank you.

That recently?

I'll pound you to a "Pulp" if you don't show off yours!

The Unnamable Writer: PKD appreciation thread
OtherEric replied to OtherEric's topic in Pulp Magazines
Fresh in today, 1st print non-BCE. (Did I start this thread knowing I had several PKD books on the way? Maybe...) Maybe it's just me, but this one seems actually seems to be easier to find in HC than the 1st edition paperback. BCE's are pretty common as PKD books go: -

It is, the book is a collection of stories, although they somehow forgot to mention that on the front cover. -

The Unnamable Writer: PKD appreciation thread
OtherEric replied to OtherEric's topic in Pulp Magazines
Well, it does seem clear to me there was enough interest in PKD to support an appreciation thread for at least a few days, my thanks to everybody who has contributed. Here's a couple that I don't think have turned up here yet. One thing that's always struck me as odd: while the other three VALIS books were all hardcovers, as near as I can tell the only standalone hardcover edition of VALIS itself was an extremely limited edition released in the UK in the late 80's. I get it being a paperback original, about 2/3 of the books released in PKD's lifetime were. But I would have expected at least a SFBC edition, particularly since I know there are BCE editions of Divine Invasion and Radio Free Albemuth. -
It's three magazine boxes, roughly. So not quite crazy space, but definitely not nothing. The sad thing is, I've got the Dark Horse collections as well. My next Kurtzman project is to finish the Humbug run; I've got all of his MAD issues, as well as Trump and Help!
