Three more Lansdale first editions:
Lansdale, Joe R. Bubba and the Cosmic Blood-Suckers. Subterranean Press, 2017. First edition hardback, letter G of 26 signed, lettered copies, a Fine copy in a Fine dust jacket and Fine traycase. Prequel to Bubba Ho-tep. The traycase is a vaguely coppery color and feels vaguely suede-like. Supplements a signed trade edition. Bought off eBay for $185, $65 less than the original $250 publication price. I wouldn’t mind picking up all the Lansdale traycase editions, since I already have four of those, and have virtually everything else of Joe’s…
Lansdale, Joe R. The Steel Valentine. Pulphouse, 1991. First edition hardback, #36 of 100 signed, numbered copies, a Fine copy in imitation leather boards, sans dust jacket, as issued. Pulphouse Short Story Hardback #7, reprinted from By Bizarre Hands. I avoided the short story hardback line when it first came out, as I had a hard time thinking of them as real books rather than gimmicks, and didn’t expect them to hold their value. Now, after I’ve collected everything else by the author, I’ve been picking them up, and my original judgment about their collectability (or lack thereof) was largely accurate. I picked this and the following up for $29, which is all of $7 over the combined price of both when published…
Lansdale, Joe R. The Steel Valentine. Pulphouse, 1991. First edition trade paperback original (simultaneous with the hardback), a Fine copy, signed by Lansdale.
