Britain's Hank Janson was responsible for some terrible
titles: Hotsy, You'll Be Chilled Don't Mourn Me Toots Some
Look Better - Dead Skirts Bring Me Sorrow
(I heard that Prion were all set to reprint some of his
stuff, but last time I looked there was no info on their
website)
James Hadley Chase wasn't much better: You Find Him - I'll
Fix Him Do Me A Favour - Drop Dead We'll Share a Double
Funeral
Fredric Brown has some good titles. I particularly like "Mrs
Murphy's Underpants" and "We All Killed Grandma".
