The Robert E. Howard story for this issue is "The Thing on the Roof," identified as "A shuddery tale of an old, legend-haunted tomb in Honduras, and the doom that pursued the man who opened it." Condition: Front and back covers are intact and firmly attached, along with the spine, which is unfaded but shows wear. Front and back cover edgewear is minimal, most evident at the bottom, which is untrimmed. 'Complimenary Copy' in large block letters is stamped across the front, which carries a C.C. Senf portrait of a helpless, topless damsel being prepared for display on a cross by figures clad in red robes. The spine has a split at the top, bisecting the date, and has separated along the front cover hinge in the same area for about 2 inches. Three pieces of tape cross the spine and extend onto the front and back covers. The tape pieces on the white areas of the ad on the back cover have browned, and soiling appears there as well. (See alll photos of the covers and spine.) The top corner of the back cover and 28 interior pages are bumped, while the rest of the pages carry a mild crease. Bottom pages tips are rounded. Interior pulp pages have toned but are still supple and firm, with no coupons clipped.…

Store description
Netherworld Books is an online seller dealing in rare and out-of-print fanzines, comics, magazines, paperbacks and hardcover books, mainly in the science fiction and fantasy fields. Because we deal only in collectibles, all items are carefully packed and shipped in sturdy boxes or heavily reinforced packaging to ensure full protection during transit. We insure all items and always provide tracking. Orders are mailed on Monday (if holiday, Tuesday), Wednesday and Friday. OUR PHILOSOPHY: We grew up haunting bricks-and-mortar bookstores, and we try to replicate as much of that experience here as possible. Our descriptions are always detailed and informational (as if you were talking to the proprietor face-to-face) and we always provide multiple pictures of our items, so you can feel as if you're actually examining an item you've taken off the shelf and are holding in your hand. We hope you enjoy the visit ... and find something of interest before you leave.…
