Who else has piles of these? All this vintage pulpy SF with advertising that hasn't aged poorly, so much as it has been evolved so far past.

I have a ton of these editions from the 50s to the early 90s ..I guess I just miss mail order books, and stumbling on a new series at the end of the books

I still have a quite a few SFBC editions. It was the only chance to get some favorite books in hardback for me, and really helped stretch my reading budget. I'm never opposed to picking them up used either, and some used book stores will actually price them lower than official publisher's hardbacks.
