Episode 92: 1988 Classic Hardcovers: The Final Chapter with Tony Whitt
When Virgin publishing purchased WH Allen, the hardcover books were losing money.  In June, 1988 it was decided to stop publishing cloth bound Dr. Who books. The final novel, "The Smugglers," was limited to 1000 copies.  That makes it extremely hard to find. The other titles were random.  153 hardcovers were published from 1974-1988 including reprints. Owning a whole set is a lofty goal. I am missing 4 titles as of now.  Loch Ness Monster 1st edition, The Three Doctors 2nd edition, Dinosaur Invasion 2nd edition, and The Time Warrior.  I doubt I will find them.  Joining me is Tony Whitt, host and producer of The Target Book Club Podcast.  Keep Collecting!

Episode 80: Classic Hardcovers of 1985 with Tony Whitt
On today's show we explore the WH Allen hardcovers published and sold in 1985! 13 books with one reprinted book. This would be the last time a hardcover in this line would be reprinted and we can't figure out why?  Why were only 1st edition "Two Doctors" target books sent to the US and not available in the UK?  The hardcover run will end in the middle of 1988 so how are sales?  US distribution happened for most of these titles affecting their value.  Tony Whitt, the host of the Doctor Who Target Book Club Podcast, offers insight into the actual novel of the story.  Join us on this continuing adventure!  We also have My Time and The Most Outrageous offer!
