Items related to The Adventures of Jimmie Dale
"The most puzzling bewildering, delightful crook in the annals of crime!"
That's what Herman Carruthers, the editor of the Morning News-Argus, had called the Grey Seal over his after-dinner coffee at the St. James Club with rich man-about-town Jimmie Dale.
He cracked safes, this Grey Seal. He wore a mask. And although he left his mark at each job -- he never actually took any loot.
What Carruthers could not have known was the handsome man he was talking to was the Grey Seal. Nor that Jimmy Dale, blackmailed by a mysterious woman who knew his secrets, was about to start a war on the men who ran the underground of New York City . . .
The Crime Club!
