The Hellcat by Carter Brown  Signet S2122   First print. May 1962   $15  SOLD to crassus

I love this one - leopard print GGA cover art by Robert McGinnis. Sexy as all get out.

Fine Minus. Glossy, square and solid. Has a little twist to the spine, a color scrape near spine and lower right corner crease. Some dirt on the whites of the back cover. Decent page quality.  You just don't see any of that when looking at this dynamite cover!

Out Of Time's Abyss by Edgar Rice Burroughs  Ace  64482   March 1973     $20

First Frazetta cover edition. Ace switched around some of the covers from the earlier editions when they did the tall editions and some of the Frazetta covers that were on other earlier short edition titles were used for the talls, with much greater detail sowing on the tall editions. 

Very Fine minus. Super glossy, appears unread. Has a thumb bend on top back but this is another stunner overall with off white pages that are very unusual. Tiny stamp on page edge.

Action packed Frank Frazetta cover art. Later "Tall" Ace printing with the larger cover art space.

Fine plus. Super glossy and bright, bright whites, appears unread. No readers creasing at all. Has odd pressure marks on the back cover that don't break color that I lowered the grade for. Some kind of storage wear. Tiny stamp on page edge. Looks like a 10.0 from the front.

The Lad and the Lion by Edgar Rice Burroughs  Ace 46870   May 1974     $15

Incredibly detailed sanjulian cover art. The first Ace edition and so much cooler than the earlier Ballantine edition. It's interesting which ones Ballantine got the rights to first after Ace had so many first US pbs.  Frazetta was done with new covers for Ace by 197 so one of the premier Vampirella artists got the call.

Fine plus. Super glossy, appears unread. No spine wear at all.  Another one where the front cover looks 10.0. Back cover has very light spotting of  color transfer and a couple light finger bends to left corner. Great page quality.

At The Earth's Core by Edgar Rice Burroughs  Ace 03322  1st Frazetta Ace edition.  October 1972    $25  SOLD to goldust40

Beautiful wrap around Frazetta cover.

Very Fine. Super glossy and new looking. Great colors.  Razor sharp corners. No creasing at all. Tiny edgewear near back bottom spine but overall has incredibly sharp edges with virtually no wear. Great off white page quality and light toning to inside covers. Tiny stamp to page edge. A superior copy and well worth a premium.
