Leisure Book LB1111. Bellmore, Don. Sinners Chorus. FN 6.0. Very solid copy with some minor creasing and dirt on the back. Otherwise, a very nice copy of a tough Greenleaf book. Cover art by Robert Bonfils. There's a good copy on Amazon for $125. This copy is $90

Ember Library EL 343. Dexter, John. House Hop. VF- 7.5. One of the better copies of this book I've found. Just some minor surface and edgewear. Otherwise very colorful and bright. Classic cover by Robert Bonfils. $150

Guys, I have to take a short break.  I'll be posting these remaining books tonight in about an hour or so.  Thanks to all that have purchased and looked so far!

United States Army. Pocket Guide to China. 1942. FN 6.0. General wear for the grade but all solid and attached. There's also a 1943 and 1944 reprint out there (which is marked 1943 or 1944 on the last page, this copy says 1942). Interior illustrations throughout by Milt Caniff that are incredibly racist and inappropriate by today's standards. Stuff like “How to spot a Jap”, etc. $60

Amazing Stories, December 1948. VG- 3.5 (trimmed 3 sides). I purchased this from a fairly high profile seller as a 6.5 but with the damage to the back and the trimming, I think 3.5 is more accurate. One of my all time favorite covers of the run by Harold McCauley $20  Sold to Jack Linguini @ 20% off

Falcon 42. Walton, Bryce. The Long Night. VG- 3.5. Great colors and gloss, it's all there but some creasing, a minor spine roll and a 1” spine split at the base are the major issues. Still, this is an incredibly tough book in any condition. Classic cover by Howell Dodd. $55

Man you are bringing out the guns tonight! Falcon digests are so tough. I just recently got one of these after 7 years of looking
