This is probably a good spot to pause. I have things to attend to during the day tomorrow and Sunday so will probably be posting in the late afternoons/evenings mostly. Thanks again for the takes, likes and comments. I'll try to dig out more stuff you all will appreciate

Gonna start up a nice little stack of Golden Age Avons I have on my desk here. Avons really do epitomize vintage pb's in my book

 

Carlotta by Robert Briffault    Avon No. 250   1950          $30  SOLD to mstrange

Classic Raymond Johnson Headlights cover, a scarcer one. It was re-used later by Avon on the cover of the comic book Intimate Confessions No. 3  

Fine.   Square tight and bright, has reader crease and a bit of light creasing and wear. A nice looking classic.

 Virtuous Girl by Maxwell Bodenheim   Avon 168     1948         $30  

Killer early nipple cover by Raymond Johnson. One of the first to fill an entire cover.

Fine Minus/Fine. Spine is solid and pages tight but slightly uneven. Covers are smooth with minimal creasing. Edgewear to spine and worn at the spine tips. A nice front.
