HENRY KUTTNER: MASTERS OF THE WEIRD TALE
Ed here: A treasure of a collectable that will grow in value every years. The original covers, the black-and-white illustrations from the magazines...this is a true masterpiece of book production. For my taste the most impressive book Centipede/Millipede has produced to date.
