Aha. Today I see — just in time for Halloween — that Amazon has knocked an eldritch 13% off the $40 retail on Arkham House Ephemera: The Classic Years. Or, as I call it, Eph Book. Published on Halloween night in 2024. For reasons I’ll never understand the last two or three weeks Amazon has been toying with the price. First it was something like 4 cents off (yes, 4 cents).
