ppint. 27th Nov 2021		and again, thank-you david. there are a few holes in the record of the series yet - mostly in terms of the details of later printings, and in the artists responsible - if that's quite the right word - for some of the worse covers (and actually, some of the good covers, too): but that's the pan books of horror essentially ''done''. - feel like starting on the fontana books of great horror stories series - ? - and/or the armada ghost books... - ? - gd&ra...

ppint. 22nd Nov 2021		pan macmillan pan books first printing, first edition mixed original and reprint anthology of twelve short stories and three novelettes bar-code number truncated by too-small field: 9780330310994 90000 cover art by melvyn grant (signed melvyn, also credited) cover price £2.99, $8.99 australia, $11.95 new zealand, $5.95 canadadas 208pp? including titles, indica, table-of-contents etc. last in the well-established series: i've no reason to suppose the last five sold substantially worse than the previous five in the series, but clarence paget was a commissioning editor, and became the editorial director at pan books / pan macmillan (pan books was wholly-owned by macmillan from its purchase of the shares it did not own in 1987), and these may well not've repaid his time so well as other projects; or he may've retired. clarence arthur edward paget died in may 1991. #1: ''the pan book of horror stories'' ed. herbert van thal (1959), q.v. for series listing, and links.
