Dennis issued 19 volumes in his Fredric Brown series, all of them in
limited editions, signed by the author of the introduction. He
reissued only a few of them as trade paperbacks. After the final
volume in 1991, Dennis sold Hawaiian shirts (!) and engaged in other
ventures, before reviving his company a couple years back. Yes,
indeed he's still in business. I think another rara-avis-guy sent in
his web site.

His most recent book is a collection of Howard Browne's pulp stories,
INCREDIBLE INK, published in honor of Browne's 90th borthday. It's a
lovely volume, but list price is $85.00!
