catrick339 Posted June 30, 2023 Author Share Posted June 30, 2023 That's it friends, done for the evening. Expect an early bird session PLUS an early afternoon session tomorrow to get caught up, followed by the usual evening fun. Tomorrow evening is back to science fiction and fantasy, with a nice handful of Frazetta covers. See you then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catrick339 Posted June 30, 2023 Author Share Posted June 30, 2023 (edited) G'morning! Time for catch-up from last night's shortened session. Each Night A Black Desire, NewsStand Library 4-A General wear, shows up dramatically on the black front cover. More minor mayhem BC, and on page 2 there's a big ol' printover, under which, in the right light, you can see a different copyright notice from what appears elsewhere. Printed in Canada, I'm guessing it held an American copyright and it was cheaper to use the original plates amd smudge it up then reset the page. Just my guess, mind you...

catrick339 Posted June 30, 2023 Author Share Posted June 30, 2023 (edited) A Man Lay Dead, Fontana Books 389 British publication, and I've been told by a couple people who should know that this is a rare first printing. I'll have to take their word for it, couldn't find out much about it. However, they may be right, I couldn't spot any listing of this particular edition on ABE, although there was a fifth printing listed for $30 Regardless it's a solid midgrade copy with general wear, but there's a light water stain upper edge and spine BC. Small ink notation upper RH page 1. Let's see. Asking $20 Edited June 30, 2023 by catrick339 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may start late, it may be abbreviated, and there's a possibilty that it may not happen at all. Some of you east coast and midwest dealers and collectors may know Roger Petersen, from The Collectors Zone in Jackson Michigan. Roger was diagnosed with bone cancer back around the first of the year, and passed away midweek last week. There's a little memorial/wake for him this evening at 6 PM here in town and I'll be attending. Depending on how many funny stories folks have to tell, I may be late for the session this evening, or call it off entirely. Look for me by 9 PM or so, or not at all, and I'll double up tomorrow to catch up. Just wanted to say that I always enjoyed talking with Roger at the Gem City Comic Con. He always had some of the best $5 books you’d want. My thoughts are with his family. Randall Dowling, jimjum12, crassus and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
