The Closet Rides Again

Neal Adams Checklist 1974
Printed in 1974, the Neal Adams Checklist lists all of Adams' work up to that point, including comic stories, advertising art, comic strips and some unpublished pieces as well. The characters on the right of the full cover are from the stage play Warp that Adams helped design.
The Dagger of Tsiang and other Adventures by Hugh B. Cave
Eleven stories set at Tsiang House, an British outpost in the wilds of Borneo, all of which appeared in the 30s. Tattered Pages Press. 1997.
Forgotten Fantasy #3
Continues the reprinting of The Goddess of Avatabar along with selected shorts.
The Pickled Punks
The 19th volume in the Dennis McMillan Fredric Brown series. Hardbound from 1991 and the last to be found in the closet.
Golden Age Greats Volume 9
Matt Baker, Rueben Moreira, Bob Lubbers and Maurice Whitman head up this collection subtitled "The Fabulous Femmes of Fiction House." Background notes by Bill Black.
The Getaway by Jim Thompson
In the early 80s, Black Lizard books began a series of paperback reprintings of the late Hardboiled/ Noir school of writing and featured lots of Thompson. All had tacky covers as seen here. Eventually, the entire Black Lizard operation was sold, I think, to Random House. This one from 1984.
King Solomon's Mines by H. Rider Haggard
A Dell map book with a movie cover from 1950. All would be well, except Haggard's novel has been adapted for this edition to parallel the movie.
The Phantom versus the Sky Maidens
Ken Pierce reprinting of the 2nd Phantom adventure. The story is reformated to to fit a standard comic size. Squarebound from 1982.
Savage Tales #2
In 1973, Marvel revived Savage Tales and this time, made it work. Howard's "Red Nails" pt. 1 is in this issue drawn by Barry Smith and the Kull story is a reprint by Berni Wrightson. John Buscema cover.
Savage Tales #3
Just because it was in the same box, here is the 3rd issue, which contained the 2nd part of "Red Nails" by Barry Smith.
Superman #185
More Weisinger inspired silliness.
Weird Tales
Probably the weakest of the Weird Tales collections, this is the Caroll & Graf reprinting of the English edition, edited by Peter Haining. Many of the stories had never been reprinted before and should have remained in that state.
