Books in print at the time were assigned numbers for catalog and ordering purposes that never actually appeared on the books. Ace rarely put printing dates in their books, making it impossible to order this listing chronologically. 09175 Hunt, Charlotte Casebook of Dr. Holton, The n.d. 09176 Hunt, Charlotte Casebook of Dr. Holton, The n.d. 09236 Grant, Joan Castle Cloud n.d. 09234 Grant, Joan Castle Cloud n.d. 10240 Hunt, Charlotte Chambered Tomb, The May 1975 12596 Hunt, Charlotte Cup of Thanatos, The n.d. 28851 Hunt, Charlotte Gilded Sarcophagus, The n.d. 49545 Hunt, Charlotte Lotus Vellum, The [Jun] 1970 50501 Eyre, Katherine Wigmore Lute and the Glove, The n.d. 50502 Eyre, Katherine Wigmore Lute and the Glove, The n.d. = 65965 Caird, Janet Perturbing Spirit n.d. = 75750 Rohmer, Sax Secret of Holm Peel, The 1970 80838 Hunt, Charlotte Thirteenth Treasure, The [Aug] 1972 81800 Hunt, Charlotte Touch of Myrrh, A Mar 1974 = 86020 Coffman, Virginia Vampyre of Moura, The [Jan] 1970 = 86021 Coffman, Virginia Vampyre of Moura, The n.d. = 86022 Coffman, Virginia Vampyre of Moura, The n.d.
