My Most Incredible Vintage SF Science Fiction Paperback Haul Ever - Time Machine Books!
In today's video I unbox a superb, original owner collection of vintage Science Fiction paperbacks. These date from the late 1960's to mid 1970's. What makes them so special is the astonishing condition that they are in. Quite superb.
I unbox, clean and polish these beauties, then sort them by publisher. The end results are simply amazing and I'm sure you'll agree these are straight out of a time machine with their astonishing condition.
The main publishers and authors include, Panther Books, Pan Books, Tandem, Sphere, Corgi, Mayflower, Michael Moorcock, E.E. Doc Smith, Philip K. Dick, A. E. Van Vogt and many more.

An immaculate haul! I also don't get much time to read full-length novels, so short stories are a godsend. You're right that Thomas M Disch is highly-regarded. His short story collection "Under Compulsion" is one I read nearly 40 years ago and some of the stories remain with me to this day, I think of them often. With unusual perspectives of national identity, the aftermath of wars and health crises, but not in the ways you'd expect, he remains relevant.

Thanks Frank, great insight my friend 👍 I tend to read more short stories than anything else these days. I must try a bit more Disch, that short story collection sounds excellent.

Decades ago I read a Disch short story that still has the blue ribbon for best title ever, "Fun with your new head." While I cannot recall what the story was about the title has stuck with me over these many years.

1972 seems a nearly consistent year in these finds. A very good year indeed, when I was born! Seriously, some of my favorite science fiction editions came out that year, as well as songs and movies. The Giallo films reached a crescendo then as well.

Besides Goo Gone, another solvent to try is BBQ lighter fluid. Use sparingly and use some paper towels to soak up the excess, it will also evaporate in time. Again use a needle point applicator..

Yes, I've used lighter fluid in the past on old toy boxes. It can work like magic!

Just watched this again and there are some truly great books there in superb condition- reminds me of my recent Troutmark Books hauls where lots of 70s SF had been stored unread in biscuit tins (!). I'd single out Thomas m Disch 'The Genocides' (that's the edition I have) and George R Stewart's 'Earth Abides' as the picks of the bunch. Some pretty rare UFO titles there too. It's also piqued my interest in Ted Carnell's 'New Writings in SF' series (I have quite a few of these in hardcover and paperback, but it did get me listing what I don't own) and the condition of the Sphere 'New Worlds' series - seminal for me - was stunning too.

Does this mean you'll have some "New Worlds doubles " to pass along?

@JulesBurt Жыл бұрын

I doubt I have any of those one Walt, sorry.

@salty-walt Жыл бұрын

@@JulesBurt Let me rephrase. Perhaps some of the doubles will be "Stories from New Worlds" edited by M. Moorcock. Just incase youu thought I meant something like an "Ace Double" - which the text could be taken to mean. The answer may still be the same, but I KNOW I saw some in there, & I *thought* I'd seen you with some "Stories from New Worlds" before, in earlier videos.

@JulesBurt Жыл бұрын

For sure, once I have these ready to be shelved I can check what I might already have. I'm sure there are some doubles in here.👍

Mottleing is what I said, a build up of storage mold and mildew over time. Usually this is easy to clean off.
