Volume 2 - 1st printing. "Aug. 1953 - Apr. 1954!" Collects Tales of Horror (1952-1954 Toby/Minoan) #6-10.Cover by Jack Sparling. Featuring Stories by Rocco Mastroserio, Jack Sparling, Mel Keefer, Howard Rosenberger, Bill Molno, George Olesen, and Ben Brown. Toby Press was a small but respectable comics publisher, which also used the imprint Minoan; they put out one issue of Tales of Terror, then got hit by a cease-and-desist order from E.C., which used that title for their annuals (don't worry we'll bring you that particular issue later on). Toby dropped that and started over with Tales of Horror, which ran for 13 issues. Toby may be the only comics publisher to swipe the urbane and cynical stories of John Collier, rather than relying on Poe, Lovecraft, and the like. Softcover, 184 pages, full color.
