    Agree. HA's estimates are all over the place take this one for example: https://fineart.ha.com/itm/pulp-pulp-like-digests-and-paperback-art/john-schoenherr-american-1935-2010-space-viking-analog-magazine-cover-november-1962gouache-on-board12-x-12/a/8161-71464.s?ic2=mytracked-lotspage-lotlinks-12202013&tab=MyTrackedLots-101116

    Lovely. I particularly like books where the PB is the true 1st edition.
  25. The-Collector
    Wow!!!

    It's hard especially with non-US books. I don't know of any organised source like Comic Books Plus or the Grand Comics Database. I mostly just google a lot and look through posts on the FB paperback group and Instagram. For sci fi isfdb.org is pretty comprehensive and includes scans of nearly all covers.

    I've been after this one for a while. It's very tough and always shows up in bad condition. So very happy to have any copy.

    Not a comic but I've been after this one for a while. It's very tough and always shows up in bad condition.

    If anyone sees a nice copy of Narco Nymphos at the show let me know!

    Awesome pick ups!! Dream club is a tougher book. It was originally printed with the title "Beyond Desire" which is even harder to find.
  31. The-Collector
    Awesome collection. I NEED that LoTR set. And If you got that Army Romances spring edition from CC I think you were bidding against me.
  32. The-Collector
    I believe the cover is Bonfils. You are right they aren't cheap items, but relative to PCH they are a bargain.
  33. The-Collector
    Great stuff RM. That copy of Marijuana Girl is very nice!
  34. The-Collector
    Also what’s not to love? Great covers, awesome stories, culturally important, and for the time being reasonably affordable.

    I think the sci fi connection is important. I originally got into PBs because of my love of sci fi. There are multiple Instagram accounts devoted to sci fi and paperback art with 100k or more followers. And their followers are avid and active.
