This is taking way too long with my phone like this. I'm going to try to fix it and either start again later or in the morning...

You should try an actual computer...

No private UFO book showing for you  

Seriously - I do use my computer for listing, but my phone for taking those nice pics - and the bluetooth phone link makes it nice and easy to transfer the photos into the listing - without having to plug the phone in with a wire and wait for it to mount as a drive - which is very time consuming and frustrating. I'm updating my phone software and will try to pair them up again but not having much patience right now so will probably solace myself with beer and start listing in the morning

So, 5 android updates later, my bluetooth seems to be working again, still a bit wonky but I'll take what I can get and try to get a few more listed.

Hypodermic needle with Good Girl cover on one side, Robot on the other. If this was pulp or comic it would be praised to the moon by the masses and worth fantastical sums.

Beyond the End of Time Edited by Frederik Pohl     Perma P145   1952   1st PB Edition    $20  SOLD to Goldust40

One of the best of the early anthologies with great reading.   Has a Heinlein story (collaboration) that wasn't reprinted anywhere else for many years.  Bradbury, Asimov and others too. Great cover art too, uncredited, this too looks like Harry Barton to me.

A pretty amazing copy for such a fat book, has a faint crease in the upper right corner but looks fresh and unread or very lightly read with no reader crease
