48. HOLLIDAY, Don [pseud. Victor J. Banis]. GOTHIC GAYE.

$200

Quintessentially ’60s gay pulp. Fifth in the James Bond-esque “Man from C.A.M.P.” series, starring Jackie Holmes, a handsome blond millionaire spy who fights homophobia and seduces grateful men wherever he goes. In this installment, Holmes falls in love with a baron and visits the haunted Castle Gaye. Cover copy promises: “THAT MAN FROM C.A.M.P CRUISES A GRUESOME GHOST!” Includes a wistful reference to a (fictional) “legendary film version of [Mary Renault’s classic novel] The Charioteer.” By the legendary and prolific Victor Banis, who later wrote of his creation: “In a sense, gay pride could be said to have started with Jackie Holmes.”
