JimEss SUBS 3rd Jan 2024		Book Harry Harrison - The Best Of Harry Harrison (1976)	Covers added.
JimEss SUBS 19th Dec 2023		Book Kingsley Amis - New Maps Of Hell (1961)	Covers added.
JimEss SUBS 13th Dec 2023		Book Fredric Brown - What Mad Universe (1950)	Covers added.
JimEss SUBS 27th Nov 2023		Book Sam J. Lundwall - Alice's World (1971)	Covers added.
JimEss SUBS 30th Oct 2023		Book Tony Licata - Great Science-Fiction (1965)	Covers added. I guess the back cover serves as the introduction.
JimEss SUBS 24th Oct 2023		Book Arthur C. Clarke - A Fall Of Moondust (1963)	Added covers.
JimEss SUBS 22nd Oct 2023		Book John Crowley - Beasts (1978)	Thanks, good observation. I concur that it's VDiFate.
JimEss SUBS 22nd Oct 2023		Book John Crowley - Beasts (1978)	This has the top half of a signature at the bottom left, but indiscernible to me.
JimEss SUBS 6th Oct 2023		Book Douglas R. Mason - The Phaeton Condition (1974)	Covers added.
JimEss SUBS 4th Oct 2023		Book Larry T. Shaw - Great Science Fiction Adventures (1968)	Covers added.
JimEss SUBS 3rd Oct 2023		Book Richard Collier - The Great Indian Mutiny (1965)	I don't think a Count is mentioned in the short section explaining the possibility of beef-fat being used to grease the cartridges, only the officers who were dealing with the rumor. It's mentioned on the prologue page and I'll add that. This book also has the UK title of The Sound Of Fury, which could be added for the English Title, but apparently I can't access that field from the Add Missing Info tab.
JimEss SUBS 30th Sep 2023		Book Ursula K. Le Guin - Interfaces (1980)	Added the covers.
JimEss SUBS 18th Sep 2023		Book Ralph E. Shikes - Cartoon Annual (1954)	Copyright 1953, but the cat # puts it into 1954. So I've gone with that for now.
JimEss SUBS 2nd Sep 2023		Book Jo Clayton - Wild Magic (1991)	Front and back covers added.
JimEss SUBS 21st Aug 2023		Book Isaac Asimov - Second Foundation (1958)	Added covers.
JimEss SUBS 28th Jul 2023		Book Isaac Asimov - The Currents Of Space (1953)	Added back cover.
JimEss SUBS 16th Jul 2023		Book Pat Murphy - There And Back Again (2000)	I'm not sure if this is the same Pat Murphy of the Make A Mummy book. Does anyone know?
JimEss SUBS 14th Jul 2023		Book Maritta M. Wolff - Whistle Stop [abridged] (1950)	I looked through the 1959 printing and it's not abridged. It contains passages and sections not found in this printing. Also, it doesn't say abridged anywhere. So, together with the page length, I'd say that's conclusive.
JimEss SUBS 12th Jul 2023		Book Bob Huxford - Huxford's Paperback Value Guide (1994)	I purchased this in an antique store.. Basically it's a survey of about 50 book stores with prices and conditions of some of their paperbacks, presented alphabetically by author. Naturally there's plenty of duplicates for common titles by prolific authors. But it also contains quite a few scarce books listed at higher prices which are easy to spot. Some of the rarer books are absent, so obviously none of the dealers had them for sale. Its interesting to browse through even now, but actually I never got that much practical use out of it.
JimEss SUBS 12th Jul 2023		Book Maritta M. Wolff - Whistle Stop [abridged] (1950)	I'll see if I can find the 1959 printing. Unlike hardcovers, I actually have something like a system for storing paperbacks. I store them in plastic sleeves in 15 or 18 qt. containers labelled by category. So this would be in a General Fiction container.
JimEss SUBS 10th Jul 2023		Book Brian Aldiss - No Time Like Tomorrow (1959)	Back cover added.
JimEss SUBS 8th Jul 2023		Book Robert Silverberg - Valley Beyond Time (1973)	Added covers.
JimEss SUBS 28th Jun 2023		Book Paul Park - Soldiers Of Paradise (1990)	Added the covers.
JimEss SUBS 28th Jun 2023		Book Philip Loraine - The Angel Of Death (1971)	No date on this one. The 1971 date I used comes from a few online sellers and seems reasonable to me, but needs further verification.
JimEss SUBS 2nd Jun 2023		Book Terry Carr - On Our Way To The Future (1970)	Added covers.
JimEss SUBS 27th May 2023		Book Manly Wade Wellman - The Dark Destroyers (1960)	Cover added.
JimEss SUBS 25th May 2023		Book Arthur Schnitzler - Night Games And Other Stories And Novellas (2002)	It does include Dream Story. My copy is buried away somewhere though, so ... no table of contents scan for now.
JimEss SUBS 23rd May 2023		Book Jeff Sutton - Tropic Fury (1961)	Covers added. Cover painting by Harry Schaare.
JimEss SUBS 17th May 2023		Book Ralph Milne Farley - The Radio Planet (1964)	Covers added.
JimEss SUBS 1st Apr 2023		Book Leigh Brackett - The Big Jump (1955)	Cover added.
