From the introduction: "In 1939 when paperback books began to be mass-produced, a whole new world opened up for readers. Previously only best-selling books reached the hands of avid fans, now millions could afford the small twenty-five cent books. When we realize that this period was before mass communication, the paperback book was truly a grreat innovation. Today these early editions are eagerly sought after by collectors."
