(London), Headline, (2000). The last novel published in Laymon's lifetime; he died on Valentine's Day, 2001. Inscribed by the author to another horror writer on December 2, 2000, "To Stanley/ Great to see you again. Best/ Dick/ Richard Laymon." Recipient's Gahan Wilson-designed bookplate on the front flyleaf. Faint foxing to the top edge, else fine in a fine dust jacket. Very uncommon signed, and a nice association between two horror writers. [#031429] SOLD
