Readcomix Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 That Showcase 43 is a no-brainer for someone. Tough book for sure. A fairly high grade copy sits in my black hole collection or I’d nab it. catrick339 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catrick339 Posted October 15, 2021 Author Share Posted October 15, 2021 (edited) Just posted this over in Announcements, thought I'd run it past this crowd too. Closely related, IMOInspiration has struck me, in the form of Straw-Man's hardcover thread over in Mixed. He's selling general literature, and boy are his hardcover volumes gorgeous. That copy of Deliverance is sorely tempting. Here's the thing. I have a good many gorgeous hardcovers on my shelves too, and they're mostly genre fiction. Science fiction, fantasy, horror, and mystery/spy/adventure. Is there enough interest hereabouts to put together a thread in Mixed? Several Arkham House, Gnome Press, Fantasy Press, Avalon, Doubleday, etc etc. would be put up for grabs, including Heinlein, Leiber, Zelazny, King, E E Smith, etc etc. Let me know what you think.

catrick339 Posted October 15, 2021 Author Share Posted October 15, 2021 Righto. Three so far interested, anyone else? And what sorts of stuff and price range would suit you all? Vintage signed Heinleins at $1000 - $1500? 50's SF and Fantasy at $100 or so? Obscure 70's signed horror at $200? Eighties and up at $5 - $10? Vintage paperbacks featuring true first editions by various well known authors? Limited edition signed slipcase editions at $50 - $500? Autographed copies at $20 to $200? All of the above? Inquiring minds want to know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
