The Curtain Never Falls by Joey Adams   Popular Library 285 1950  $20

Earle K. Bergey GGA cover art

Fine/Fine Plus, solid and smooth with great color. Has some spine wrinkle from glue shrinkage. A nice looking copy.

[Surfing Alien]

Wild Town by Jim Thompson  Signet 1461    PBO 1st Edition  1st Print   1957    $60  SOLD to goldust40

An iconic Maguire GGA cover and a Jim Thompson true 1st Edition. Probably the only decent copy on the web for less than $100. They've pretty much disappeared.

VG plus/Fine minus   Solid and square with a reader crease, spine and surface wear. Reader's creases are pretty much inevitable on this book.
