Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Rare title and light good natured humor from the late 1930s. First and only edition of this enchanting classic. Reddish cloth boards, gray cover design, spine titles, moderate shelf wear, discoloration. Pages very good. Bind fine, square; hinges intact. Rare near very good elusive…volume. A comedic mystery surrounding a quest for lost treasures. Harry Fein's only Hubin listed mystery novel and a predecessor to Van Gulik's China-set mysteries. A fast paced digestible story of the East in America with dynamic period imagery in an art deco vein by Gardner Rea (1894 - 1966) - an American cartoonist and noted contributor to The New Yorker. At least three villians, one or two heroes, and several more astonishing characters besides are all here. Don't read it where you're not allowed to laugh - nor at a time when you are trying to remain long-faced in your outlook on life! This story offers a pleasant interlude in the midst of your serious reading agenda; a relaxing break between Ancient History and Hamlet. Or, if you are one of those "non-readers" for whom the authorities are creating many new names, you'll likely take to "The Flying Chinaman" with ease. And may develop a new attraction toward the written word because of this jocular expedition into unrequired funny. Author Harry Fein, Boston lawyer, became charmed by Chinese customs and life styles through his studies of Confucius and Oriental philosophy. His previous writings were serious and this is his holiday from more arduous labors. And, a zen-like moment of time for your mind's well being. 147 pages. Insured post. Size: 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" Tall. Rea, Gardner (illustrator). Book.
