Welcome, Jerry! Jerry and I used to haunt the same used
bookstores in Atlanta in the 1960s and 1970s. Those were the
days when used paperbacks were two for a quarter (okay, a
little more by the late 1960s) at the Peachtree Book Store
and there was always Cantrell's on the square in Decatur
where he gave out wooden nickels as promotional items. As I
mentioned recently, Books Again on McDonough Street in
Decatur is my current favorite.
I was just at Curt Phillips' house and saw his copy of the
Mike Shayne issue with your story. I sold several stories to
MSMM back then but some how I must have missed that
issue.

Gerald Page since the 1960s, mostly science fiction and
fantasy, but I did appear in Mike Shayne's Mystery Magazine
toward its end. In the 70s I was the editor for DAW Books of
the annual The Year's Best Horror Stories anthologies.
