Another Borderlands Little Book:
Jacobs, W. W. A Little Purple Book of Pernicious Peril. Borderland Press, 2026. First edition hardback, #463 of 350 signed, numbered copies signed by editor Nicholas Psaltos (Borderlands: “we only print 350 copies but if anyone has matching numbers above 350, we make sure they continue to get it,” and my numbers are higher), a Fine copy in decorated boards, sans dust jacket, as issued. Ten weird stories, including (naturally) “The Monkey’s Paw,” a horror story so famous it even got a Treehouse of Horror segment on The Simpsons.
I have copies of this available through Lame Excuse Books, though I haven’t listed it on the page yet.
