A Delivery From The U.S. Part Two

unsubscriber

Last week, I wrote about placing an order via eBay for a list of books from my good buddy Otis in the U.S. (here). I then went on to feature the first half dozen of these fabulous titles for you to drool over.

This week I’m presenting the second set of six vintage paperbacks in an attempt to create a much more easy to digest format rather than dumping a whole load of covers in front of you to sift through. Once again, do let me know your thoughts in the comments.

    Another great set! You do so well finding these. There’s one I’ve heard of this time, albeit with a different cover, the Lloyd Biggle. Favourite this time around is the Sheckley. You’ve got several new Powers one this time, how many have you got now?

    Take care, Bernie xxxxx

      Thanks for the comment Bernie, glad you enjoyed these. I can always count on Otis to sort me out when I have the spare cash. As for Powers covers, I have quite a collection of those now although couldn’t give you an exact number. Hope you’re well, take care xxxx

    My favorite is the Gene Szafran’s cover, but the sight of Jeff Jones’ signature on the corner of Day of the Beasts reminds me that I should pull out my old copy of The Studio and spend some time with Jones, Barry Windsor-Smith, Bernie Wrightson and Michael Kaluta.
