Burmese Days by George Orwell Popular Library No. 459 1952 $12 SOLD to Goldust40 Nice GGA cover art in the style of Barye Phillips but uncredited. Pretty racy back cover blurb, Orwell didn't shy from controversy. In nice shape with some spine stresses and an odd bindery flaw, one page was bound out of sync and sticks out a little (not loose, very tight in the binding)

I guess it's a George Mayers kind of day... Jasmine Street by Clifford Dowdey Popular Library Giant G119 1953 $15 SOD to Goldust40 Beautiful GGA cover from the great period at Popular when they put art on the front and back. Mayers signature on the back cover art At 480 pages, this is truly a Giant of a book. Very hard to find these fat volumes in such nice shape. Has a light crease on upper front and a bit of edgewear. Incredible whites on that phat spine (pictured)
