[jimjum12]

Title says it all. I had iit priced quite a bit higher recently, because I didn't really want to sell it. The cover and interior art is by Virgil Finlay, from a 1st presentation in Weird Tales. This is the 1st edition hard back. Offering this cheaper as I recently upgraded. Thanks for looking GOD BLESS ...

"ROADS", Seabury Quinn ...Arkham House 1948, limited to 2,137 copies.                     95.00

I got this from Catrick several years ago, for slightly more than this list. Origin of Santa from Weird Tales, cover and art by VIRGL FINLAY... extremely cool.

I already have my copy, Jimbo.  But it's a great book, Seabury Quinn's one genuine classic.

I just gave it a thorough reading, as it doesn't seem destined for sale here. I'll leave it up until Christmas and will likely give it to a grandkid or one of the nieces or nephews. I just wanted to make sure Santa wasn't created by Nyarlathotep or something, before gifting it. Don't want to give "Flesh Eating Santa Zombie" to one of the kidlets. "No, No, Santa, you're supposed to eat the cookies!! Aaiiieee!!" GOD BLESS ...
