Love this! David. Your father was (and is) such a force in book publishing. I recently bought a mass market copy of 1984, 75th anniversary edition. It's no longer a format that is very kind to my eyes, but it brought back lots of memories of days gone by, when companies like Avon and Bantam were revolutionizing the industry. Thanks for your essay!

A further essay, on the texture of the paper of the mass-market paperbacks, is a desideratum.
