I don't believe it contains the following:
Des Ormeaux, J.J.(Forrest Rosaire) "The Devil Suit." Coxe,
George Harmon "Murder Mixup." Booth, Charles G. "Sister
Act."
"The Sleeping and the Dead", edited by August Derleth
Wandrei, Howard "The Last Pin"
************* Thanks, Bill. I've been shopping for it and
it's a high-dollar item (at least for me) and I was wondering
if I could live with the paperback or not.
I've become interested in the transitions that hardboiled
made from the Twenties into the Thirties, and I've been
trying to collect some of the Black Mask stories from then.
Other than Gruber's "Big Five" (Daly, Gardner, Hammett,
Whitfield, and Nebel, I think), it's hard to find many
collected hardboiled stories from the Twenties.
I think Coxe had a drunken lawyer for a protagonist. I can't
remember where I read that.
