Item description
STRANGE AS IT SEEMS (first three editions, all different) by Elsie Hix - Bantam Books, 1st pb/1st pr./1st pr., 1955/1960/1962 - Good/Abt. VG/ Near VG STRANGEST OF ALL - Ace Star Books, 1st pb, 1962 - Good+ STRANGE PEOPLE - Popular Library, 1st pb, 1963 - Good STRANGE WORLD - Ace Star Books, 1st pb, 1964 - Near VG by Frank Edwards In the 1950s 1960s there was a lot of interest in strange and interesting facts. Ripley's BELIEVE IT OR NOT had a resurgence and in the mid-'50s the GUINNESS BOOK OF WORLD RECORDS began. Here are 3 samples each of two other book series from that time: Elsie Hix's STRANGE AS IT SEEMS (which copies Ripley's text illustrations format) and Frank Edwards' strange-but-true series (which is all text). This extensive collection of oddities totals nearly 1,200 pages! All books are either the first edition or first paperback edition -- and as such, some are now very scarce. Only one has a previous owner's name in it. A unique collection in today's market!
