    "Terror in Times Square" is back in print in its original (and terrible title) "Kiss Your Elbow" under Harlequin's Vintage Collection series and I've been looking for a theater-set mystery so thanks! Keep up the fine work!

    Nice collection. Love the quote on the cover of “I, Libertine”: “Gadzooks”, quoth I. “But here’s a saucy bawd!”
    Never let it be said by our high school teachers that we didn’t once upon a time appreciate Shakespearean or Francis Bacon styled literature, ha!

      Yeah a fun book, it was done as a satire, and the Freas cover art has a lot of intentional errors in it, gadzooks!

    The Ewing novel is a collaboration between Sturgeon and Jean Shepherd, I believe.

    Hi Gary. You certainly have some eclectic tastes. As a one-genre collector I still enjoy seeing these vintage books because the covers are so fantastic. Also it introduces me to a whole new world of paperback collecting. I'm also delighted to see that you're not too bothered by condition. I appreciate a mint book as much as anybody but, for me, it's more about nostalgia. If a book shows some reading wear - great, that's their purpose. Anyway a nice haul and I enjoyed seeing it. Regards Kenny.

      @@garylovisi357 Hello again Gary. My apologies I had no idea that you had 6 DAWs for me. Firstly, I just made another order with Graham Holroyd in New York so it would be useful to know which 6 to avoid duplication. Secondly I would need some instruction on the best way to pay you.
      I really appreciate your taking the trouble to help me out here. Kind regards Kenny.

    I just read that Orrie Hitt Promoter book a couple months ago. It was ok. The blurb on the back doesn't match the characters in the book. Like it's not just a wishy washy blurb, it's totally the wrong book!

    Nice little haul! Do you ever run into any of the Max Bolan series by Don Pendleton or Doc Savage by Lester Dent.

      Not the Executioner, but sometimes Doc Savage with those great James Bama covers . So cool.

    I, Libertine! One of the greatest literary hoaxes of all time! I'd love to own that. That was written by Theodore Sturgeon as a joke / dare. What a find!
