\"\"<\/a>Quite a while ago I posted about Hugh Walpole’s ‘Extracts From A Diary’<\/span> <\/strong><\/em><\/a>which he had printed in lieu of his 50th birthday party as he wasn’t well. They were limited to 100 copies and I have number 3 which came with a letter to Alan Bott, founder of PAN Books. I was speculating on where the others may have ended up and after writing a article for ‘The Hugh Walpole Review’ my list of 23 has expanded to 29 thanks to Rod Boroughs of the Hugh Walpole Society and Peter Henderson of the King’s School Canterbury.<\/span><\/p>\n

I’ve also included Walpole’s ‘The Crystal Box’<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a> of which I have number131 or 150.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>Just by coincidence I spotted a couple of titles linked by the word ‘Fear’, the first being ‘Reign of Fear’<\/span> <\/strong><\/em><\/a>with a cover by Ian Miller<\/span><\/strong><\/a> published as a PAN Horror and the second ‘The Grip of Fear’<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a> with a cover by Sam ‘PEFF’ Peffer<\/a><\/span><\/strong> published by Digit. Sellers of the latter title can ask up to three figures for it but as to whether or not they sell for that I don’t know. What I do know is I got if for a price I was pleasantly surprised by.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

\n\n\n

This weeks ‘New Titles’<\/span><\/strong> features ‘Sherlock Holmes’<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a> and it is from mid 1975. It also highlights ‘The Rainbird Pattern’<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a> by Victor Canning\u00a0 as “one of our finest and most consistently <\/b>successful<\/b><\/span> crime writers”<\/b><\/em><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n
