Belmont/Tower

 

Tower 50800 -

 




 

Belmont was started in 1960 by the friendly folks at Archie Comics (which, believe it or not, was established in 1942 and is still around). They originally published Belmont Books in the standard (short) format, but transitioned to the tall paperback format within a year. It has been reported to me that there might also be some connection to Stanley Library, which published a few adult titles a couple years before (you can find some Stanley covers in the "Sleaze" section).

Later, in 1969, Belmont was merged with Tower Publications (which had produced Midwood books -- also found in the "Sleaze" section), and  began producing "Belmont/Tower" books.
