Today's feature is Doc Savage paperbacks of the 1960s and '70s from Bantam Books. They're reprints from Doc Savage magazine, a pulp from the '30s and '40s published by Street and Smith. Nearly 90 percent of the initial Doc Savage stories were written by author Lester Dent. Kenneth Robeson was a house-name owned by Street and Smith.

It's a rainy First Friday in the beautiful & historic Oregon District of Dayton, Ohio. Even Tom Swift tried to elbow in on the action with a Wright Flyer & a crankless ignition car for his adventures. We're a fascinating stop for your next expedition!

A fresh batch of graphic novels just arrived, mostly Marvel, a few DC, & a couple of others. You might have to wait for me to read some of these first 😉👍

Not quite ready for sale, a recently acquired collection of vintage Mentor Books. These have always been personal favorites and can be difficult to find in nice shape. Their gloss-clad covers tend to peel, sometimes taking color with it.

The combo of Coronation & Kentucky Derby brought to mind our copy of "The Instructors' Handbook of the British Horse Society and The Pony Club." Here it is along with 7 other equestrian care volumes.

Bonnett's Books is an 80+ year old, 3rd generation, family buisness in a 147 year old building which survived the Great Flood of 1913, in the hometown of the 1st Edgar Cayce Psychic Institute. I'm often asked if we're haunted...
Do you believe in ghosts?

Graham Greene wrote many things & traveled extensively in so doing. "In Search of a Character" is a travelogue from a few such trips.
Martha Grimes' "Send Bygraves" is a mystery told in poetic verse! I'm impressed!

In his wake, remembrance of Al Jaffee's MAD Fold-Ins overshadows his many other contributions to the mag, as collected in numerous paperbacks, like "Snappy Answers to Stupid Questions."

Fresh to our Wellness shelf is Bill Moyers' "Healing and the Mind." When it comes to health, "fake it 'til you make it" is not the way. Put on a strong face, if you wish, but don't fool yourself into ignoring problems.

I forgot to photograph books for today. By way of further introduction, I made this graphic for the curious. I'm new here, but you can look at these to see where I've been (including "the bird site") and the wide variety of things you might see as we move forward together. Enjoy!

Closed Sunday, as usual. Happy Easter!
These books are on our shelves now, until they aren't. If you see something you like it's best not to wait. It's uncommon for me to have multiple copies at a time.

I'll sell you books; won't ask what for. They might be cheap, they may be more. Jokes, romance, philosophy, wars... But, read them, please. They're not decor.
