Not only did I own a bunch of his anthologies, this one included, but around '76 or so he ran an ad in an adzine Caz Cazedessus (of ERB-dom fame) was putting out offering several items from his collection for sale, & I wound up acquiring my copy of Meade & Penny Frierson's seminal "HPL" from him, as well as some other stuff I can't recall.
