Raymond F. Jones also wrote This Island Earth, which of course was made into the famous movie. He appeared in Astounding Magazine and Thrilling Wonder Stories, among others. This book appears to be long out of print and quite a collector's item. Nice find Zen.

This was one of the so-called "juvenile" series of Winston Science Fiction books. They're very nostalgic for baby boomers.

This was the first one I ever read. I have it without the dust jacket, and I appreciate seeing what the cover looked like.

GREAT!
I didn't expect to be reading this one. I only get the Winston Juvenile SF that got reprinted in paperback... Too poor to be throwing money at even moderately collectable books when there's so much other stuff to read.
Thanks.
I prefer to remain anomalous...

Im glad to see this has fans here. I have a couple more similar books around somewhere on a cd - ill have to upload them when i find it.

Old piles of good sh... stuff

These are spotlighted items - not always 'old' because of when they were made but rather these are things that were posted awhile ago on this blog and have been 'archived' in the back.














I hope you enjoy the site!
