WANT LIST
The following list is a compilation of the Chandler stories I'm still trying to collect.
Funds for making collection purchases are randomly available, so please don't expect an immediate sale if you happen to have something I'm looking for. On the other hand, if you're not desperate to sell something I'm looking for and can afford to put it on hold, I'd be happy to add a few extra dollars to the purchase price as compensation for your patience.
If you do have something on this list you wish to sell, please contact me via email - USPL@cfl.rr.com.
The list below is in alphabetical order by title and contains alternate titles, the publication name (an anthology or magazine title) and, where appropriate, the year, month and country of publication.
If you are more into trades than selling, I can offer paintball equipment and a limited number of Heavy Metal magazine issues in exchange.
Items in red text have been added to the collection since the creation of this list.

This
story was purchased by Harlan Ellison for his "The Last Dangerous
Visions" anthology. I've tried obtaining a copy from Harlan.
No dice. Apparently crying over the telephone has no effect on the
man, nor do bribes in the form of the full retail price of the book
for a single story. There was a time when long-leggy blondes
might have been persuasive, but alas, even in stilleto heels I'm
still short...and male... Camping on his doorstep might work, and
I'm pretty sure that the offer of a 100 million dollar budget and
complete creative control of a film project would get me in the
door... |
