A Matter of Morals by Joseph Gies Popular Library 421 May 1952 $12
This one there's no doubt, campy GGA cover art is signed by Harry Barton
Fine/Fine plus. Solid, square and glossy. Spine is clean and appears unread, no reader crease. Has a light corner crease otherwise very bright and clean.

*Redhead Alert*
Stag Stripper by Mike Avallone. Midwood No. F132 $40
Gorgeous and rare Robert Maguire sleaze GGA cover. Smaller print runs at the sleaze publishers make the competition for these fierce and Midwoods are some of the toughest.
Fine/Fine Plus - Square, glossy copy with light surface wear and bends. Has a ding to right lower corner that created a crease that doesn't break color. Minor moisture stain to back lower corner. A nice presenting copy.

Ace D-40 Waltz Into Darkness by William Irish (aka Cornell Woolrich) and Scylla by Malden Grange Bishop 1954 $40
One of Woolrich's wildest fantasies of noir fate. I loved this book.
A great copy of a tough early Ace Key book. Gorgeous, evocative cover art by Victor Olson on "Waltz" (the original survives, you can look it up on Heritage - I'd love to own that piece!) and Lou Marchetti on "Scylla". Very hard to find in this condition due to all the Woolrich fans going after them.
Fine Plus/ Very Fine minus. Beautiful glossy copy with smooth covers. Colors are deep. Off white pages, minimal toning to interiors. Hairline reader crease on "Scylla" side. Light edgewear. A beauty.

Frankenstein by Mary Shelley Lion Books No. 146 1953 $50
The first mass market pb of the classic horror novel has become rare in any condition. Art not credited but I believe strongly that it is Lou Marchetti.
VG/Fine. Solid and square, pages tight, has creasing around the spine edges and on the back cover but overall a very presentable, collectible copy. These are getting put away in permanent collections.

The Green Girl by Jack Williamson Avon Fantasy Novel #2 First and only printing of this paperback first edition 1950 $30
Fridge Magnet book - one of the most reproduced Sci-Fi covers of all with Raymond Johnson's classic cover of the naked Green Girl in the clutches of the Vegetable monster
Very Good Minus/Very Good. Has a neat hole punch to upper right, otherwise it's a nice VG copy with creasing and wear but the classic image still looks great. Rare to find any decent looking copy less than $50

The Doll's Trunk Murder by Helen Reilly Popular Library 211 1949 $65
Iconic violent Rudolph Belarski Bondage/Headlights cover. A book that never comes up for sale anymore as they pretty much get squirreled away in permanent collections and not let go.
Very Good/Very Good plus. Square and tight, covers are smooth and mostly uncreased, colors are bright. The main image displays very nicely. Small spine split and a fair amount of spine paper wear. Main issue is old moisture wrinkling, mostly at the rear of the book. An decent looking affordable copy of a very difficult book.

The Mighty Thor Lancer Books 72-125 1966 $25
First Thor pb. Collector's Album.
Fine Plus. Unread feeling, spine is square and tight. Light reader crease at spine edge, covers are otherwise smooth and uncreased. Sharp corners. Pages are off white, inside covers are lightly toned. That is not a chip on the upper left back corner, a weird discoloration. These Lancer's have all kinds of weird little paper issues across all lines and titles. A fresh looking copy.
