  • Episode 90: Classic Hardcovers sold in the USA prior to 1984!
    After finding a 1981 Catalog from the “Time Lord, Inc” of Brooklyn, NY owned by Ed Novak, I now have a new list of classic hardcover (Wingate and WH Allen) books sold in the USA in 1981.  This is 4 years before my company, Bundles from Britain, got the exclusive distribution deal from Lyle Stuart. This opens the door to more possible non-library copies that might be in the New York area and beyond!  This is breaking news!  The hardcover guide will be updated soon but here are the books that were sold in 1981 that were not in the Bundles catalog:
    Web of Fear (possible 2nd printing)
    Pyramids of Mars
    Time Warrior
    Tomb of the Cybermen
    Dinosaur Invasion (possible 2nd printing)
    Underworld
    The Android Invasion
    The Face of Evil
    The Invisible Enemy
    Planet of the Spiders (2nd print – before we had them!)
    The Sontaran Experiment
    The Seeds of Doom (possible 2nd print)
    The Dalek Invasion of Earth (probably 2nd print)
    The Masque of Mandragora
    The Carnival of Monsters (possible 2nd print)
    The Image of the Fendahl
    The Loch Ness Monster (possible 3rd printing)
    The Tenth Planet (possible 2nd print)
    The Deadly Assassin
    The Robots of Death
    The Space War (possible 2nd print)
    The Three Doctors (possible 2nd print)
    The Ice Warriors (possible 2nd print)
    So I will keep an eye out for these titles on Ebay and other sites!  Good Luck!

  • Episode 88: 1987 Classic Hardcovers with Tony Whitt
    We continue our coverage of the Classic Dr. Who hardcovers by WH Allen with the year 1987. The company is being sold to Virgin books and sales are not going well. WH Allen is trying hard to liquidate assets and sell as many books in this final full year of publication. The books released are in a random order with only one Sylvester McCoy story making it to hardcover.  Tony Whitt, the host of the Target Book Club podcast, talks about the prose and story of each title citing reviews from his show.  With My Time and the Most Outrageous Offer, this will be a fun ride!

  • Episode 69: The Classic Hardcovers of 1983 with Tony Whitt
    The 20th Anniversary of Dr. Who, and talking about it during the 60th anniversary.  Brings back memories for Tony and I as we go through the hardcover releases of 1983. Mostly Peter Davison Books, but we also see the final 4th Doctor story published in hardcover until well after the end of the run for W.H. Allen. Photo covers finally get axed when Peter Davison’s agent catches on to the scheme.  Andrew Skilleter gets to go around that with Doctors in Silhouette on The Five Doctors!  Join Tony and I through this memory and journey!  The hardcover run will end in 1988, and, yes I have all the books from here until the end.

  • Episode 66: I say Aeonian, you say Amereon! Rare USA hardcovers
    Well, the best kept secret in the USA has been revealed! Well not really. “Red, White, and Who” has written about it and even interviewed the owner. So why didn’t anyone know about these books when they came out? We may never know. I didn’t know about them when I ran a Dr. Who Store. Here is what I know, and maybe, someone out there knows more… These 5 rare USA Dr. Who hardcovers are legitimate releases with license agreements and everything! Very hard to find outside the USA.
