Two more Half Price Books finds:
Jacobs, Harvey. The Egg of the Glak and Other Stories. Harper & Row, 1969. First edition hardback, a Near Fine+ copy with slight bumping at head, heel, and top rear point, in a Very Good dust jacket I’ll replacing with the better dust jacket on my existing copy, inscribed by Jacobs: “To Polly Lyons,/with all good wishes/for sunthings and/moonthings. Happy/wedding./Harvey Jacobs.” The signature seems to match other online examples of Jacobs signature. Replaces an existing copy. Bought for $13.50.
Martin, George R. R., editor. Texas Hold-Em: A Wild Cards Novel. Tor, 2018. First edition hardback, a Fine copy in a Fine dust jacket. Bought for $8.99. I have the first twelve Wild Card Bantam PBOs (the first three signed by a significant number of contributors), the three Baen PBOs, the first six SFBC hardback reprints of the Bantam PBOs, the two iBooks hardback firsts, and a goodly number (but not all) of the Tor hardback firsts. So I need the Tor firsts of Busted Flush, Suicide Kings, High Stakes, Low Chicago, Knave Over Queens, Three Kings, Joker Moon, Full House, Pairing Up and Sleeper Straddle.
