Tales of Chinatown Sax Rohmer Popular Library 217    $30
 
Iconic Rudolph Belarski GGA cover art. One of the most recognized and reprinted covers in the hobby.
 
Solid tight binding. Very ittle creasing and edgewear. Top edge has some moisture exposure with slight wrinkling of the paper and a little color loss. Still quite a pretty thing.

The Frightened Stiff by Kelly Roos   Dell 687 1st Print    1953    $15

Gorgeous GGA cover art by Len Oehmen. I love this slick style and wish he did more!

A bright glossy copy. Has two creases on the front cover, otherwise just light edgewear. A nice looking book.

Big City Girl by Charles Williams      Gold Medal Books 163   PBO  1st printing  1951                 $60

The second in Charles Williams' "Girl" series for Gold Medal 

Classic GGA cover by Barye Phillips in high grade

Super clean with full lamination and gloss, appears unread. No creases, a hint of edgewear. Has a small touch of marker at top of spine edge. Some collector's code? It might come off but I'm not the guy. This is a blazing sharp glossy copy
