Sunday Morning Bonus Pulp: Super-Detective Stories, May 1935


This early issue of SUPER-DETECTIVE STORIES sports a nice dramatic cover by H.J. Ward, and there are some fine authors inside: Richard Sale, James P. Olsen, Emile C. Tepperman, the mysterious Margie Harris (has any of Harris's work ever been reprinted?), and lesser-known Sam Kellman, John Mallory, and Charles Molyneaux Brown. This was Kellman's only credit, so it's possible that was a pseudonym. Sale, Olsen, and Tepperman are enough to make this issue worth reading if I owned a copy, which I don't.

John Locke's Off Trail Publications published one Margie Harris collection, QUEEN OF THE GANGSTERS: Volume 1: BROADWALK EMPIRE. I like her work: punchy prose, action packed plots and people who show little regret or remorse at the means they use.

Thanks, Sai. I'm going to see if I can come up with a copy.
