Paperback. Zustand: Good. First Edition. G: in Good condition without dust jacket as issued. 160mm x 110mm (6" x 4"). 50pp.

Stapled paperback novelettes. Duodecimos, pp., 33, [1]; 50; 49, [1]; 34; 50; 50. Publisher's original colour-printed pictorial wraps, imprints to lower cover. Numerous black-and-white advertisements for products aimed at women within text. Staples rusted but holding well, occasional lights spots of soiling to lower covers, a few creases to covers. Contents evenly toned, commensurate with age. All excellent copies. Six necessarily scarce and ephemeral works, most ostensibly written by and for women. These volumes (as is often the case with pulp romance novelettes of the twentieth century) are poorly represented in institutional collections and WorldCat locates no copies of these titles world-wide. We also locate no copies at the University of Chicago's Collection of 1940s-60s British romance novelettes, which holds the most substantial collection of the 'New Moon' series.
