The Spider #1 Death Reign of the Vampire King by Grant Stockbridge     Pocket Books 77952     1975    $15  SOLD to goldust40

First of the series with Robert Maguire GGA cover art with a cool bat background.

Very Fine minus. This one is also unread, glossy and new looking with a perfect spine and almost no wear. Has a bit of tiny spotting/color transfer on the back cover so taking it down a little.

You will like this one for sure 

 

I think that moves me from about 70% complete in the Popular 200's to 71% complete. Never have had a copy of that one.

The Green Girl by Jack Williamson    Avon Fantasy Novel #2   First and only printing of this paperback first edition     1950  $35  SOLD to N e r V

Nice bargain copy of this classic Raymond Johnson cover of the naked Green Girl in the clutches of the Vegetable monster

Take Care Of Me by John Turner  Midwood F280   PBO 1st Ed. 1963        $40  SOLD to goldust40

What a cover! One of my favorites.  Robert Schulz didn't do a whole lot of Midwood covers but the couple he did are "out there"

Great looking copy. Fine Plus/Very Fine Minus   Square, tight and glossy. Hair of a reader crease and very little wear. Inner covers and pages are fairly toned but supple so taking it down a notch.
