NY: P. F. Collier & Son, 1939. A set of P. F. Collier editions, six of them, in the original mailing box. One side of box has been taped, as shown. The books are as new, five of them still have the original glassine on on them. Noted: the titles are THUNDER MOUNTAIN 1935, glassine very good with some chipping, RAIDERS OF THE SPANISH PEAKS, 1938 with the glassine having a finger nail size chip near the edge of the spine and a 1/2 by 1/2 inch triangular piece lacking in the upper right center, WEST OF THE PECOS, 1937, good to very good glassine wrapper, WESTERN UNION, 1939, with good to very good wrapper, THE LOST WAGON TRAIN, 1936 with upper right and center of glassine affected as shown with a couple of small holes in glassine in 1/3 of the bottom area and KNIGHTS OF THE RANGE, 1936 with no glassine. Books are in fine unread condition. Embossment on the front of each, one is shown. The box still has the label on it, "Six Volumes Bound in Orange Colliertex." Interesting, as probably not many survived in the box. Box is in good condition as shown-with tape residue and some writing on it. See photos. Thank you.. 8vo. Reprint. Cloth. Fine.

About Phantom Bookshop

Phantom Bookshop was established in 1993 by bookman and artist John Anthony Miller and located there for eight years in Downtown Ventura at 451 E. Main St in Ventura, California. Many famous authors and celebrities signed there and was a top favorite bookshop of Ray Bradbury's. We specialize used and rare books, unusual material and signed books with an emphasis on the unique, sci fi and fantasy, first editions, scientific and medical. We also have a nice selection of high quality facsimile dust jackets done etching and engraving artist John Anthony Miller (all jackets are marked tastefully that they are facsimile jackets, printed on high quality non acidic paper using the finest inks that will last a lifetime with care). Phantom Bookshop relocated in 2000 as an internet business.
