new-book arrivals

Not much new stuff making its way here lately, but in the past few weeks some things have trickled in:
  • Whittington, Harry TO FIND CORA / LIKE MINK LIKE MURDER / BODY AND PASSION, Stark House Noir Classics, 6/09, (David Laurence Wilson intro; bibliography), new 19.95 [view covershot with back cover depicted as well as front]
  • SPACE AND TIME #107: The Magazine of Fantasy, Horror, and Science Fiction, sum/09, (Drago, Arrelle, Turzillo; Part One of Peter S. Beagle interview) • ---#108, fall/09, (Edelman, Jeshonek, Krasnoff; Part Two of Peter S. Beagle interview), new each, 5.00 [looks like I forgot to catalog #107 when it first came in -- I wonder how much else I've missed]
  • TALEBONES: Science Fiction & Dark Fantasy #38, sum/09, (Kowal, Edelman, Russo, Hibert, etc.), new 7.00
  • CEMETERY DANCE #61, '09, (The Magazine of Horor and Suspense; Peter Straub special issue), new 5.00
  • Harvey, William Fryer THE DOUBLE EYE, Tartarus '09, 1st, (brings together all thirty of author's uncanny tales, and his curious Introduction to Moods and Tenses; a feast of thrills, chills and uneasy entertainment for lovers of the supernatural story; Richard Dalby intro), new in dj 55.00
  • Russo, Patricia HEARTS STARVE, A Not One of Us Special Publication, 7/09, (stories; 62 pages of small but readable type), booklet, new 3.50
  • Moore, C.L. MIRACLE IN THREE DIMENSIONS and Other Stories, Howling Wolf/Isle, (Lost Pulp Classics #1; these nine stories have been virtually unpublished since their original appearance in the pulp magazines of the 30's and 40's), new 16.95
  • Long, Frank Belknap THE HORROR FROM THE HILLS, Isle, 3/09, (Lost Pulp Classics #2; reproduces the text of the Arkham House edition), new 12.95
---These can also be found in New to Catalog Listings, a lot sooner than here, as well as a number of used titles I've been to lazy to drag here, but that I have been adding to the inventory off and on from time to time.
---The above, of course, are subject to discount, mostly 20%. (Tartarus: 15%). Rule of thumb: small press items are 20%; major publishers and major-distributed smalls (which it looks like I've about quit taking in new): 30%. Still plenty of back-stock though, a lot of it LOP (long out of print), some highly-priced by other sellers these days. Books still listed as "new" twenty or twenty-five years later you might be surprised to find still in the same condition as when it arrived here. (All books are stored in plastic and not those mylar dj covers -- causing wrinkling and don't protect from dust and humidity)... but I don't like to go on about such stuff, preferring performance to do the talking.)
