Library Addition: Limited Edition of Avram Davidson’s Naples

Another Avram Davidson chapbook from Temporary Culture.

Davidson, Avram. Naples. The Nutmeg Point District Mail/Temporary Culture, 2022. First edition self-wrappers chapbook original, one of 160 copies, a Fine copy, inside a black envelope with Mylar protective wrappers and with a mounted black and white photograph laid in. Bought for $150 (the subscriber price). Story reprinted from Charles L. Grant’s Shadows anthology.

I’m sort of a Davidson completists but these chapbooks are starting to get a bit pricey for my budget…
