: I just had a copy of Garan the Eternal appear in the mail. And the dustjacket is like a good 3/16" shorter than the book itself. Is this normal?

Regretfully this is very normal. This edition ,by the Fantasy Publishing company, was one of the last ventures of publisher William Crawford. He was always starting semi-ill fated publishing ventures. He published Marvel Tales in the early 30's which only had 5 issues. Too bad because issue number 6 was to have had Andre Norton's "People of the Crater". This finally showed up in Fantasy Book Vol. 1 number 1 another short lived Crawford enterprise. The story had sat in Crawford's files for 12 years.

Although Garan the Eternal is nicely bound, i believe all the jackets are too short.
