Hardcover. New York, DC Comics, 1st, 1998, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover 216 pages. Like new in publisher's shrink-wrap. Plastic Man encounters a number of zany villains, including Fargo Freddie, the volcanic man; Froggy Fink, underworld killer; Elmer Body, the body-possessing nobody; and others. Jack Cole was one of the true geniuses of the comic book art form. Here we have some great examples of his masterwork, Plastic Man.

Hardcover. Museum of New Mexico Press, 1st, 2003, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover, 124 pages. Featuring eighty-two vintage postcards published beginning at the turn of the century, Postcards of the Night traces American cultural life as it was transformed by industrial strength and shifting demographics.
