QUEEN, ELLERY [EDITED BY].

Publication: Little, Brown and Company, 1944, Boston

First edition. Former owner's bookplate on the front free fly leaf, inked comment and date on the half title page,, else a very good tight and clean copy in a bright dust jacket with minor wear to spine ends and corners, with a few tiny nicks and chips to the top extremities. Red top edges are bright. Thirty-three stories that belong to the combined category of parody-travesty-satire-burlesque about the "Great Man." Unrecorded cases, not as Doctor Watson related them, but as others greater than Watson imagined them. Includes stories by Carolyn Wells, Agatha Christie, Stuart Palmer, Vincent Starrett, O. Henry, and many others. Dust jacket cover art and illustrations by Frederic Dorr Steele.
