“Between Two Worlds” by Nandor Fodor. 1964 hardcover first edition (and yes I have the softcover of this as well for it has an equally cool but different cover!)
Also: If you can find me a supernatural investigator with a name COOLER then NANDOR FODOR I…well…I just won’t believe you!

“Sudden & Awful: American Epitaphs & the Finger of God.”


1968 first edition hardcover. This is a book of strange and funny tombstone inscriptions from graveyards all across America. It is awesome and a fave of my collection.

“Writer’s for the 70’s: Thomas Pynchon,”
1974 softcover.
Brilliant cover…Other covers in this series show the author’s face, but as Pynchon is known for his privateness (and since there are not many photos of him at all) they decided to show the back of someone’s head instead.
Very clever design!
From my personal collection.
