Comics, Pulps, and Paperbacks: Why such a discrepancy in values?
OtherEric replied to Reno McCoy's topic in Pulp Magazines
In today. I believe I'm just down to needing We Can Build You for first editions of all the PKD paperback originals. But that one is proving hard to find a 1st printing, most listings are unclear at best. -

The spine looks a bit banged up, but it's cheaper than you would normally find a reader copy, I think. Definitely some nice Perez art in the book.

The winter issue was the first 1949 issue. It could have been Winter 1948-1949. The last issue was Summer 1949. However, several years later Walter Gibson wrote another Shadow novel that was published by Belmont books; which is generally included on lists of Shadow novels. (The later Belmont books are not generally well regarded and don't always make the list.) So a list that automatically correlates titles and dates could have put "Return of the Shadow" into a nonexistent Fall 1949 slot. As far as I know, the Shadow novel was written new in the 60's; unlike the corresponding case with Doc Savage where an unpublished novel by Lester Dent was located and finally printed in the 70's.

Mine all came in brown paper wrappers. I've actually got a couple of those in a box somewhere, but not from my personal subscription... a local store bought a lot of books from somebody who had kept the books in them; they were just going to dump them but I asked for and grabbed a few. No idea where I put them or what books were originally in them, though.
-
Oh, one other detail that probably doesn't matter but might be worth mentioning: the subscription was when my family was living in Germany, on the very off chance the books going international had some further difference. Which seems highly unlikely, but goodness knows we've run into details that initially seem irrelevant but turn out not to be in this thread more than a few times.

Post Your FOUR COLOR Comic Covers Here

And it coincidentally works out that we're doing the Christmas issue on Easter Sunday. Are we turning into the National Lampoon Reading Club here?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_seal Just in case anybody else was wondering, I vaguely recalled them.. but only vaguely.

Creepy 25 thoughts: Cover: The cover on this one is just weird enough to work, barely. I shall not be so kind the next time they take a picture of a mask and use it as a cover. Loathsome Lore: Nice art by Colon, but the writing borders on incoherent, taking several tries for me to figure out what it's trying to say. Keep Your Spirits Up: Beautiful art by Crandall, the -script serving largely as a framework for Crandall to have fun drawing. Not the first nor the last time we'll see that sort of story in the Warrens, and if not done too often it can produce some wonderful results. Witches' Tide: Still a very nice piece by Goodwin & Colan. Their Journey's End: Pure SF rather than horror. The addition of a little shading really helps Colon's work, I think. It That Lurks: Still a good but not spectacular piece by Goodwin & Adkins. I'm not sure reprinting two stories from the same issue of EERIE is optimal, but at this point who knows what they're thinking? Deep Ruby: Magnificent Ditko art. If they have to go for reprints I'll never gripe about those reprints being Ditko. An Unlikely Visitor: A good but not particularly outstanding story by the Williamsune/ Parente team. But for an anthology like the Warrens, there's too much material required for everything to be outstanding... and having good stories rather than garbage as the lesser works in an issue is vital. This is another solid issue. They're still awfully heavy in the reprint aspects of the dark ages, but the new material here is hitting a decently high standard overall.

No. Isfdb says it's by Walter Velez. One of there years I'll find my Steranko Shadow covers in storage and post them here, though. -
