As  mentioned  earlier  in  the thread,  I  found  the  other  Ted White  sword and sorcxery  books,  PLUS  a  second  print   copy of 
Phoenix  prime,   so  I'm   listing  all  three  this  evening. 

Phoenix  Prime,  Ted  White

Second  print,  1969.  

And if  you  compare  the scan  to  the  first print,   they managed  to screw up  the front  cover  by  putting  the   logo over  a 
great Frazetta  painting.   The  durned  fools,  lol

Flat and tight,   nice  gloss,  white  pages,  but a  bit of shelf  wear  and  rubbing,  touch of  soiling  BC

Asking  $5

Good morning! Here's something  weird  to  start the day.

Famous Feature Stars 1, 1938

Taller  than  a magazine,  this one just baaaarely  fits  in  a magazine  bag and it's a fraction  taller than a standard  magazine board.
Contains   short text stories, five to seven  pages,   with two   black and white illustrations  per page.   Kind of  a  hybrid  comic book/Big Little Book. 

Cardboard  cover,  and  there  are  several features   not listed  on the cover, including  Tarzan,  Buck  Jones,  and Tailspin Tommy,  and one 
that isn't there at all,   Smokey Stover  only  appears  on the cover.  Go  figure. 

Sixty four pages  plus  the covers,  flat  and tight,  with  a split upper spine,  small piece out upper  edge  FC,  dogear  upper RH  FC,  and some  general 
wear.  Only  copy  I've  ever seen. 

Asking  $125,  pretty  firm on this one.

Walt Disney  Tells The Story of Pinocchio,  1939

This  is  a  hybrid, paperback size  and format,   done Big Little Book style,  with a page of  text,  and  a page of illustration or a half  page of  illustration and more text.
It's  actually  a fumetti  book,   all  the illustrations  are  actually  stills  from the movie,  reproduced  in  black and white.

I've talked  to  several  Disney  collectors,  and  there seems to be a  general  agreement that this  is  a  scarce item,  even among the Disney  collectors. 
I HAVE  seen  one   nicer  copy,  one of my Disney  pals has a copy that  looks  newsstand fresh. 

Touch of rubbing upper RH  FC,   some  ink  chipping along  spine FC,. bit of  general  wear  and shelf  wear.  Still  flat and tight,  square, glossy, offwhite pages.

Asking  $250

Very rare indeed Rick. I know of only one other one! 

An odd  detail,  too.  This is the ONLY  paperback  size and format  item   I've  ever  seen that  has nothing,  nothing  at  all,   printed on the spine  strip, 
We're talking  a   bare,  blue  strip  with  nuttin'.
