Turn of the Table by Jonathan Stagge   Popular Library No. 267  August 1950     $35

Great Belarski GGA cover art on a famous Golden Age Vampire murder tale. Scarce.

Fine/Fine Plus.  Square, tight and bright with some minor creasing. A nice looking copy.

Darkness Weaves by Karl Edward Wagner   Pocket Books 89-598  First Printing January 1978      $45  SOLD to goldust40

Incredible Frazetta wrap around cover. The first Wagner Frazetta Kane cover I've been able to offer. Wagner's cult-like following seemingly never let these go so I've had a hard time upgrading mine.

Very Fine minus. Glossy and tight with very light spine edgewear.
