1st
Hardcover, Ex-Library
no cover / missing cover

Good+ or better

Stamps inside covers front & back, on top page block; pocket ripped from back page; re-bound by library (very tight and square.) Missing dustjacket.

Only 3000 copies of this early small-press SF hardcover were printed - (so even a rebound copy has some value.)

(Introduction)
Something Green
Crisis, 1999
Pi in the Sky
Knock
All Good Bems
Daymare
Nothing Sirius
Star Mouse
Come and Go Mad

These first appeared from 1942 to 1949 in Ellery Queen's, 4 from Thrilling Wonder Stories, Captain Future, Planet Stories, Weird Tales. "Something Green" is original to this collection. For the rest, this is their first appearance in a Fred Brown collection. My favorite Fred Brown story is "Come and Go Mad." A reporter pretends to be a madman to investigate an insane asylum - but he really is Napoleon(!)
