Leisure Book 1208. Williams, J.X., A Fog of Passion. FN- 5.5. Nice solid copy with minimal wear and a slight spine lean. One of Robert Bonfils' best covers and what a friend of mind described as a “refrigerator magnet cover”. Scarce in any condition. $170

Brandon House 728, Marshall, Steve, The Three Day Lover, 1965. VF- 7.5. Nice bright copy with full color and gloss, just a little bit of general wear to front and back covers- tough in nice shape.  By any measure, 3 days is impressive. $40  Sold to goldust40

Forgot to scan the back of this.  There's a slight scuff but otherwise same as front.  I'll add the scan later.

Midwood 124, Richards, Rick, Motel Hostess. FN 6.0 (Unread). A really nice, bright copy with excellent colors and gloss but it has an odd stiffness to it that seems like maybe it was exposed to humidity or something (not really visible in scan). Probably the sort of thing that could be pressed out. Beautiful cover illustration by Robert Maguire. $20  Sold to jimjum12
