Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. No Jacket. This 8.75 x 12.0 inch, 56 page hardcover book is the 1948 printing by the Grabhorn Press for the Book Club of California. This copy is in near fine condition with just a touch of wear to the decorative paper covers and maroon-cloth spine. The paper label on the spine is secure with just a touch of chipping. There is a hint of offsetting to the front and back endpapers but beyond that the book is in near fine condition. This title again demonstrates the integrity of the work by the Grabhorn Press, with the striking color contrast of red-and-black against the white of the paper. The use of decorative touches throughout the text and the engravings by Mallette Dean all went together to prompt the selection of this book as one of the fifty books of the year. This copy is now protected by a heavy clear mylar wrapper. 56 pages.

Book
Hardcover. Condition: Collectible-Very Good. Cloth backed patterned boards. Illustrations. 500 copies printed by the Grabhorn Press. Page sides and bottoms are uncut. In the Introduction, David Magee comments on that item of reading material from long ago called the "Dime Novel". Parents and grandparents were sure that young people reading this trash were going to have a future life of "arson, rape and murder". "Our grandfathers, razor strop in hand, stormed the woodsheds and attics of this country eighty years or so ago to rout out the evil known as the "Dime Novel". If they had bothered to read these books the elders would have discovered that "They are depressingly moral and, in the light of present day fiction, might well have served as Sunday School texts". "But if the reading of such heady stuff was supposed to send the youth of America headlong to perdition via the penitentiary, it gave pleasure to millions of simple, not very literate folk". This novel, "Ace High, the 'Frisco Detective or, the Girl Sport's Double Game" by C. E. Tripp, is definitely in the decadent or razor-stropping tradition". It is "as slap-happy and rootin'-tootin' piece of fiction as ever graced publisher's list".
