Seller: Cat's Curiosities, Pahrump, NV, U.S.A.
Book
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. "The Thin Man" and "The Boomeramg Clue" both illustrated by Joseph Franke (illustrator). It appears this is NOT the first appearance in book form of Hammett's "The Thin Man," reprinted here after its appearance in the December, 1933 edition of "Redbook" magazine. The introduction to the hard-boiled classic here includes a glossy B&W image of the Knopf dust jacket, reporting "Almost immediately upon publication in book form it shot to the top of the best seller list." Christie's "The Boomerang Clue," on the other hand, first appeared in the November, 1933 issue of Redbook, and it appears this is indeed its first AMERICAN book publication -- the introduction here indicates it's "To be published by Dodd, Mead & Co." In fact, the Dodd Mead edition issued in 1935, though we suspect the Collins Crime Club had indeed published this Christie entry in hardcover in 1934, albeit under the title "Why Didn't They Ask Evans?" Eberhart's "The Figure in the Fog" (Redbook, September, 1933) had also seen book publication by the time this collection issued, albeit under the changed title "The Dark Garden." Interestingly, the title page for "The Boomerang Clue" describes it as "a complete novel"; the title pages for "The Thin Man" and "The Figure in the Fog" do not, and we're fairly sure that means exactly what you'd suspect -- those two have both been "abridged," here. This volume now reduced from $82.

"The story [BLACK ORCHIDS] has a superb surprise ending." - Townsend B35d. From chapter 1: "I didn't particularly resent it when Nero Wolfe sent me up there Monday afternoon and, anyway, I had been expecting it. After all the ballyhoo in the special Flower Show sections of the Sunday papers, it was a cinch that some member of our household would have to go there to take a look at those orchids, and as Fritz Brenner couldn't be spared from the kitchen that long, and Theodore Horstmann was too busy in the plant rooms of the roof, and Wolfe himself could have got a job in a physics laboratory as an Immovable Object if the detective business ever played out, it looked as if I would be elected.
