There doesn't seem to be a thread devoted to the two Evening Standard Books of Strange Stories from the 1930s. I'm trying to decide whether or not they're worth buying, but I want to check the TOCs first, and I've had no luck at all tracking them down online.
So, can anybody help me out? If someone can do a quick cut and past of the contents that would be great (80+ stories in each book!), or if there's a link to a site that has them that would be great too...

If I get a chance, I'll post them both up tonight or tomorrow. As luck would have it, I was posted a scan of the second one's cover just last week but I've not had time to type the contents!

Very much appreciated demonik. There's no particular hurry, though - it is a lot of typing!

Not at all! To be honest, you've done me a favour as I've been meaning to type them up but keep putting it off. Here's the first one: Evening Standard Book Of Strange StoriesThe second might go up later depending on whether Holland vs. Italy is as tasty as it should be. I'll be adding all your Stephen Jones/ Mammoth Best New Horror details to the WordPress Vault with next update. Thanks for doing them!

Cheers demonik, that was quick work!
There are some really good stories here; I'm more impressed by the contents (of both books) than I expected to be. I think there's enough in each that I have't read to make them worthwhile purchases.
R.e. Netherlands v Italy - I hope it's an improvement on the Romania v France match I've got on in the background...
