That "Crime" is conspicuously cool

Yes, Walter Popp painted the cover. Saber/Ozaki is very good, @Pat Calhoun has been posting his work since day one on here. Ozaki wrote what I'd call light-hearted noir, as he injected a sense of humor into most of what I've read rather than go full darkness.

I don't dabble much in comics these days but when I saw Mr. Nock's Saint No. 11 comic for sale, we worked out a deal. The cover is a swipe of the last (and rarest) Avon Murder Mystery Monthly, No. 49 "Lady, The Guy Is Dead" by Edward Ronns (Aarons). Forgive the glare.

I don't usually go that low but they're not too expensive to begin with so I'd rather give them away cheaply to the good gentlemen here than re-list them elsewhere. It's a win-win

Loved Swamp Sister!

Cleaned up the thread and updated the recap on Page 6 this morning. There's some pretty and cheap stragglers still available. I'll leave them up for today, then they're off to the 'bay

Okay. That's the end of that box. I have lots more lower value books but think I'm going to hold it up here because I might be having an awesome opportunity for a surprise paperbacking trip I'm going to do something I've never done before in order to clear out books and give back to y'all. 40% off everything left until close at noon EST tomorrow
