Item description from seller

Ghosts and More Ghosts by Robert Arthur , illustrated by Irv Docktor. Random House, New York, 1963. Book Condition / Dust Jacket Condition: Book: Very Good; Gray hardcover boards with light surface rubbing and light spotting. Slight wear at corners and spine ends; small bumping at lower spine. Text block clean overall; pages bright with minimal toning. Small ink marking on front endpaper (“115” or similar). Attractive illustrated bookplate on front endpaper (“Please return my book”) with name scribbled out. Binding sound and square. Dust Jacket: None (see photos) Printing Identification Note: Random House children’s titles from this era often require confirmation via DJ price and printing codes. Without the dust jacket, definitive first printing status cannot be guaranteed. Likely Early Printing (1963) — Random House typically indicated later printings; absence of statement often suggests first printing, but without a number line or explicit “First Printing” statement, this cannot be absolutely confirmed. A classic mid-century collection of ten supernatural tales by Robert Arthur, master of eerie yet accessible suspense. Blending ghostly chills with touches of humor, these stories—praised by Alfred Hitchcock—offer shivery entertainment perfect for younger readers and nostalgic adult fans of vintage spooky fiction. Originally published in magazines such as Weird Tales, the collection showcases Arthur’s knack for atmospheric storytelling without excessive horror.

Store description

My late wife and I spent a lot of time accumulating books, especially during COVID. With her gone, the books are a reminder of her. Hence, it's time for me to Turn the Page.
