Precedes book publication. Other fiction includes: parts 4 & 6 (conclusion) of 6 (2/29 & 3/14) of Thank You, Mr Moto, a novel by J P Marquand; parts 1 & 3 of 6 (3/21 & 4/4 ) of Men are Such Fools, a novel by Faith Baldwin; part 1 of 2 (4/4) of Souvenir of Trenton, a novella by George Bradshaw; Mr Rumbin's De Rooster (2/29) & Henry the Great (3/14), short stories by Booth Tarkington; Way up Nawth in Dixie (2/29), an ethnic comedy by Octavus Roy Cohen; Hang it on the Horn (3/21), a short story by J P Marquand; and To Bargain, Toboggan, To-Whoo! (2/29), Half a Century of Women (3/14), and Dear Godmother; I Hope She Bruises Easy! (4/4), poems by Ogden Nash. Articles include The One and Only Rube [Waddell] (3/14), and The Bad Old Days (4/4) by Connie Mack. Cover art by Maurice Bower (2/29 - Eskimo and Dog Sled), R.J. Cavaliere (3/14 - Flamenco Dancer in Red), Anton Otto Fischer (3/21 - Wave Breaks over Steamer) & W.H.D. Koerner (4/4 - Dancing Warrior). Condition ranges from good to very good. The most significant condition issues are faint damp staining, light bleed & rippling to the corners - bottom left & upper right of 2/29 and upper right of 4/4. The covers on the 3/14 issue are loose and only attached to each other by a 4" strip. Other light edge wear. A good to very good example of a hard to find set of serial installments of an early Nero Wolfe novel. A heavy, oversize lot that may require additional postage.…
