  1. Philip's very short story "The Commuter" appears in this 1953, pulp sized first issue of Amazing Stories: Shouldn't take me long to read tonight, all being well. It's a UK version of the US book, distributed by our very own Thorpe & Porter. I like the 6d remainder stamp inside, which is also just about visible on the cover Here's someone else's US version, for comparison: Note that PKD wasn't famous enough to be included on the cover back in '53. As well as all the UK specific changes, my version doesn't have 'Or Else' and 'The Phantom Truckdriver' stories. Given that Strato reissued, repackage, repackaged the book specifically for the UK market, I wonder why they left the original US price on it? Maybe to make it look more exotic, who knows. Anyway, some Dick to read tonight if I can stay awake.
  2. Bit of good news though - CGC have announced that they'll be grading buckets in the future.
  3. I agree. That was a slight earthquake. Or a slight Alien Invasion. Or a slight completely rusted staple. Or a slight piece of poop on my cheese burger.
