The price is fantastic and from what I can in the picture you posted it looks to be in great shape. Are there any dings/scratches/bumps we can't see? I think you got a great deal.

Books are weapons in the war of ideas.
The traycase has a couple of minor dings and one of the corners has a split.

That's a beauty!
Congrats on getting Blood in the Gears! Do you have Cosmic Interruptions too? As someone who doesn't have a lot of Lansdale short stories, SST's series is right on time!
Also, have you read The Thicket? That's the only Lansdale I thought was better than Paradise Sky. And it's the best Earthling edition I own. Not to give you any more books to buy! But you must buy it.
Not a big deal! Especially when you score an OOP $200 edition for only $40. Nice find!
I don't know what thread it was in or who posted it, but someone mentioned feeling regret over not getting the lettered Off Season from DRP. I was looking all over trying to find the post. But I think the Bird Box Lettered was a better production. I'm anxiously awaiting the Offspring lettered! I'm going to pass on The Woman though.
Following up: someone is selling a lettered OFF SEASON on eBay and they have the Make an Offer option available. Though the asking price isn't crazy.

Got these yesterday, along with a few others that I'll post later. I know some Centipede items can be a bit pricey, I've passed on a few myself, but these two are examples of their high quality affordable books. I love Weird Fiction Review, I look forward to it every year and their Library Of Weird Fiction line is top notch. Can't wait to pitch into the Robert Aickman!

I got this Tuesday, happy to get lucky #13.

And this came today. Love the Weird Western genre/mash-up.

Love weird westerns, love James Moores writing, don't know why I haven't bought this yet. Fixing the situation tonight. Thanks for posting this mhatchett.
I wish these were available digitally.....The print price always make me pass, no matter how tempted I may be. I would love to be able to read the whole series on my tablet, though.....hint hint!
These both arrived today:
Today Circus Boy Annual showed up. The TV show Circus Boy ran for two seasons, 1956-1958. It starred Micky Braddock, actually Micky Dolenz, as the title character and the series spawned comic books and (My favorite) four big hardcovers with stories based on the TV show. I have two of the big Circus Boy hardcovers to read. I'm itching to start one and just get lost in it.

Continuing with my random pickups of Ray Garton lettered editions, I snagged a lettered PC copy of The Loveliest Dead last night.
Double postin' wooo!
I purchased I Travel By Night and Last Train from Perdition from fellow forum member Tommy.
I also picked up the numbered editions of Ed McDonald's Blackwing and Ravencry from Anderida Books.
This was purchased a couple of weeks ago, but it was finally delivered this morning:

(Ignore the boxes - I’m still trying to unpack and organize - while I gained square footage, I’m still coming to terms with moving from a three bedroom house with a garage and attic to moving into a two bedroom apartment.)
When we moved, we tossed our old couch, so I’ve been sitting in an uncomfortable, but serviceable IKEA chair, and I’ve always wanted proper theater seating. Power recline FTW!
Pretty sweet!
Very nice, enjoy!
