Creatures from Beyond, Terry Carr (editor) | 1975 Vintage Sci-Fi Horror Anthology Hardcover - BCE

An essential 1970s anthology bringing together nine pulse-pounding tales of alien encounters, monstrous entities, and classic speculative horror. Edited by renowned science fiction anthologist Terry Carr, this collection curates iconic stories originally published between 1929 and 1973 from golden-age pulp magazines including Amazing Stories, Unknown, and Other Worlds. Notable standout stories include Donald A. Wollheim’s "Mimic" (the basis for Guillermo del Toro’s 1997 cult film) and Theodore Sturgeon’s seminal monster story "It" (a direct creative precursor to comic legends Swamp Thing and Man-Thing). --- PHYSICAL DETAILS & CONDITION: • Format: Hardcover with original dust jacket (Book Club Edition) • Condition: Very Good (VG) • Cover & Binding: Black/dark cloth boards and spine show minimal shelf wear; binding is square, tight, and solid. • Dust Jacket: Preserved in very good vintage condition with minor chipping and small edge tears along the extremities. • Interior: Pages are clean and unmarked throughout, with a small notation on the top corner of the front endpaper.
