First line:
" 'Fifty cents, Mister? Any way you want it? All right, then, twenty-five cents? Mister?' "

Several pages of interesting information in back of book, including checklists (including a volume authored by "Betty Short,"
the name of the infamous Black Dahlia murder victim), disclaimers against LONG DECEMBER (#115) being declared
obscene in LA county, and assurance that Fabian Books and the fledgling Saber books do not share editorial staff
(...which they did).
