Book room gleanings - Thorne Smith

[ffutures]

Before I even had a chance to hit the book room Brian of Porcupine Books told me that he'd spotted several Thorne Smith on another dealer's table. As a result I now have

The Jovial Ghost (AKA Topper, The Misadventures of Topper)
The Bishop's Jaegers
Skin and Bones
Turnabout
The Stray Lamb
- all of these are are UK hardcovers with reasonably clear type and slight yellowing pages, should scan fairly well.

The Glorious Pool - yellowing paperback, reasonably good type
Topper Takes A Trip - very yellow but looks readable type

So that's seven out of 10, the ones I'm missing being Rain in the Doorway, The Night-Llife of the Gods, and Did She Fall?, which is actually a crime novel.

Hopefully they'll scan reasonably easily, we'll find out next week.

We have a somewhat faling-apart paperback (Kangaroo Books?) of Rain in the Doorway, and we may have The Nightlife of the Gods in Penguin in a box somewhere. I'm not sure if the former would stand being scanned, but it may be too fragile for everyday reading, anyway.

If you can spare them I'd be happy to buy them - let me know how much inc. P&P and I'll get a cheque out to you ASAP.
