EC HORROR COMICS OF THE 1950´S. AN ENTERTAINING COMIC. NOSTALGIA PRESS 1971. 36x26 cms

Ron Barlow (Editor), Bhob Stewart (Editor)

Horror Comics of the 1950's (Nostalgia Press, 1971).

Published by Nostalgia Press in 1971 this book is known by two titles, due to being titled differently on the spine and the cover: "The EC Horror Library Of The 1950's" (spine) and "Horror Comics Of The 1950's" (cover). It was the first high quality collection of EC Comics material (previous reprintings included the Ballantine paperback collections of 1964-66 and an assortment of black and white fanzines of varying quality). "The EC Horror Library Of The 1950's" was edited by Ron Barlow and Bhob Stewart with introductions by Stewart ("Dark Pagentry") and fellow EC Fandom founder Larry Stark. Though often credited as being a reprinting of Stark's "Elegy" from EC fanzine HOOHAH! #6 (1956), his introduction is in fact original to this collection and is called "An Appreciation". The collection includes 5 unique Ghoulunatic pieces by artist Joe Orlando.

Early hardcover volume of EC Horror comic reprints. Cover by Al Feldstein; interior art by George Evans, Jack Davis, Johnny Craig, Al Williamson, Reed Crandall, Graham Ingels, Frank Frazetta, and others.

The dust jacket is missing.
