Chapman 1972 VF MOONDRAGON Noel Vreeland Carter 1979 VG 10 bestselling Gothic Romance classics from the Mid-20th Century Gothic Revival when thousands of Gothic Romance books were written and millions were printed and sold. These are some of the huge bestsellers in hardback by leading authors of the genre, and most were reprinted in paperback, like these copies, many times afterwards. I still vividly remember them. Jamaia Inn, the moody mystery set on the Cornish Cliffs, was made into a movie and TV series. Nine Coaches Waiting was everybody's fave Jane Eyre-like thriller set in a French chateau. Limmerston Hall and Montrolfe Hall were popular with the Bronte fans, and Whitney's Snowfire was a huge contemporary set in the 70s snow-skiing world (yes, there was a brooding old mansion too). These paperback copies are in good to very fine condition, three with minimal marks inside cover and a couple with rubbing wear on covers, but very nice otherwise. They are fifty-plus year-old paperbacks, and are all sturdy and clean, good collectible or reading copies. If one tried to buy these titles individually (if they could be found) it'd be costly. Together like this is quick and easy, and a real bargain. Most are listed in in the book Gothic Novels of the Twentieth Century, An Annotated Bibliography by Elsa Radcliffe. I have been selling books in stores and by mail since 1965, on eBay since 1997. I have thousands of vintage Gothics, Regency Romances, early Harlequins, Victorians, and other similar books collected back in the day, and I will be posting them for sale in the weeks to come.
