The Devil Wears Wings by Harry Whittington   Black Lizard Books 1980's revival  ISBN 0-88739-036-6   FREE to the 1st Taker :)

RIF, remember that program? I believe reading is fundamental so hope someone enjoys this top-notch noir with an inevitable climax and fall...

The Timber Tramps by Kevin North  Playtime No. 649  PBO  1963    $20  SOLD to Cimm

Kind of a sleaze/detective novel with a nice Bonfils GGA cover of a stripper.

Dilemma Of The Dead Lady by William Irish    Graphic Mystery No. 20     1st Ed.  1950   $30  SOLD to Comical Situations

Strangulation cover on this collection of six classic Woolrich/Irish noir tales, including "The Dog With The Wooden Leg", a favorite.  Great reading.

The William Irish Graphics seem very tough to find in any kind of decent shape.

Square and tight with a light creasing and spine edge wear.
