The daughter of a Bay Area Bookseller used GOLDEN COUCH as the basis for a limited edition joke poster. See the attached picture. The answer to the question posed on the poster is of course 'Less than you think they are, Baby".

Something about this book was nagging at me and I figured out it was that Henry Lewis Nixon wrote more than one book about psychiatrists He also wrote one called "Ship's Doctor" so I guess it was a thing... (note the shoulders )

Nice one. I wonder if a psychiatrist ran off with Nixon's wife or something.

Another PKD first for the collection.  I've already got the BCE in storage somewhere, it was one of the earliest PKD books I found decades ago when I first started looking.

Amazingly, this and the BCE seem to be the only US editions ever, there were multiple versions in the UK and Germany.

Is that a STERANKO cover?

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.

Picked up some nice books this week, this gem is my friday fun though. Dell #221, "Dark Passage" by David Goodis

If you know, you know, that they're plagued with all kinds of problems beyond creasing and handling wear. To wit, poor color strike, fading of the poor color strike and all kinds of lamination issues. This one has a killer front cover and spine and only some light creasing, discoloration and corner wear on the back.    A keeper for sure.

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.
