Flashman at the Charge Signet 451 Y6094  First Printing, First US Paperback, October 1974.  The only edition with the Frazetta cover  $25  SOLD to mstrange

Fine Minus - Would be Fine or better but has some cover creases that lightly break color. This book is very hard to find in any condition. I've seen asks of $100 for high grade copies. An affordable copy of a tough book.

Vampirella, Deadwalk by Ron Goulart.  Warner Books 76-630  Stated First Printing   January 1976   $60  SOLD to goldust40

I kind of assume most of you comic guys know these and/or have them but I figure I'll  throw this up here because it's such a killer condition book. San Julian front cover and Enrich back cover.

Very Fine/Near Mint. Beautiful, square, glossy and smooth. Very fresh and white. Couple of tiny flecks of wear at spine edge. A spectacular copy.

Actually, despite having a complete run of the Warren Vampirellas, I've only got the first paperback.  I need to track down readers of the run.

The Dunwich Horror by H.P. Lovecraft  Bart House #12 1945   $90  SOLD to mstrange

One of the great classic early Lovecraft pbs. Lovecraft's second mass market paperback and very hard to find in any condition, nonetheless this nice. They invariably show up beaten and color faded. Also contains The Shadow Out Of Time and The Thing on the Doorstep. A must have for any vintage PB collection.

Fine/Fine Plus.  Solid tight binding, pages tight and supple. Great page quality.  Unfaded spine which is very rare and super strong cover colors. There is some bending to the covers which doesn't break color and some writing on the page edge. One of the best I've run into in years.
