Evening Reader Catalog
 

For all the pre-1967 Greenleaf book lines, please click here! William Hamling's publishing enterprises were a fascinating empire of pop-culture interests, from science-fiction to hard-boiled thrillers to hard-core erotica to high-minded political protest.    Earl Kemp was the editor for the Greenleaf literary empire from 1964-1971 and is publishing his memoirs (along with those of contributing writers and artitsts) in a truly fascinating ongoing serial EZINE.    Since the start of the publication of Nightstand Books in 1959, Greenleaf diversified its booklines to number in the dozens.   (I have organized a selection of the early smaller-format books in another Greenleaf section found in the EARLY VINTAGE SLEAZE CATALOGS).    From the earliest days, the Greenleaf books were distinct in their appearance, significantly owing to the fact that the books were printed at a printing facility that mostly did coloring books -- which accounts for the slightly different size, shape, look and texture of the small format "pink and yellow" paperbacks. In early 1967, Greenleaf moved its operations from its original base in Chicago to Southern California -- and the books afterwards reflect a new style and sensibility that was in evidence from roughly the time of the California move.    From that point on, the books were produced in the larger, more typical paperback-size format.     Also, check out the Greenleaf Adult Booklines or Greenleaf Photo-Illustrated series. and See the Greenleaf Classics Series of Erotica Be sure to cross-check the "Writers" and "Artists" and "Themes" areas also!   New books will be added as they become available.

Here's a special catalog selection of Greenleaf Evening Readers. .  Enjoy!

MORE BOOKS TO BE LISTED SOON! How to order This is a self-made website and while it might be extensive, it is not super-sophisticated.  The little  icon takes you to a generic order form where you can type in the author, title, price, and indicate whether you would like to send me a check, money order or credit card payment.  I will confirm availability via e-mail, and once I've received payment, I'll ship the book.  If you have questions,  please don't hesitate to ask  via email. Condition grades There's a standard bookseller vocabulary, with terms like Fine, Very Good, Good and Poor to assess condition (to see these terms defined, click on the link above).  Most of my books are in Very Good or better condition, and I tend to overemphasize their flaws so that any surprise is a pleasant one.  Feel free to ask questions, and if the book isn't in the condition described, you may return it for a full refund.  Wants Lists If I don't have the book you seek in stock, I will retain your book search in my wants files and email you when I do have a copy for sale. If you don't hear back from me immediately, that probably means I don't have a copy right now.  But fear not,  I keep extensive files and never stop looking....  so send me your request;  you've got nothing to lose! Not listed? Not everything is listed on-line. Let me know what you're looking for. Book Search Form
