Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Mystery writer and editor "Ellery Queen" was the pseudonym of a pair of cousins from Brooklyn, N.Y. -- Daniel Nathan, 1905-1982, known professionally as Frederic Dannay, and Emanuel Benjamin Lepofsky, 1905-1971, known professionally as Manfred Bennington Lee.) This is the second printing, "Published March 1944 / Reprinted April 1944." Not price clipped; original $2.50 price showing to top of jacket front flap. Includes the 33 most notable celebrity pastiches, parodies, or imitations of Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes stories which were available as of 1944, including Agatha Christie's "The Case of the Missing Lady," Vincent Starrett's "The Unique Hamlet," Mark Twain's "Double-Barrelled Detective Story," Anthony Boucher's "The Adventure of the Illustrious Impostor," Maurice Leblanc's "Holmlock Shears Arrives Too Late," O. Henry's "The Adventures of Shamrock Jolnes," Ellery Queen's own "The Disappearance of Mr. James Phillimore," and others, including (the first and arguably the best) Robert Barr's "The Great Pegram Mystery." Though the editors in their Introduction explain their disparate reasons for omitting three separate stories in which Holmes purportedly solves Charles Dickens' Mystery of Edwin Drood; A.A. Milne's "Dr. Watson Speaks out," and other efforts which "failed to make the cut." 365 pp. including bibliography and index.
