Books/magazines about pre-code horror?

I sold some prototype Lego parts for a few hundred dollars last week, so I decided to buy some books that I have had on my wishlist for a while. I'm looking forward to reading them!

Foul Play is a good one. I enjoyed it.
garbanzo:
There's a new one out - The Horror Comic Never Dies: A Grisly History. Has anyone read it?
Yoc:
Never heard of it before your post.
But there are a few mixed reviews I just found:
