Notes

2nd Series.
Cover art by Reginald Heade.

The penultimate book in Janson’s second series – and the subject of forty-two destruction orders by various local authorities!

The irrationality of the Act was illustrated in 1953, when the shop of Elsie Foulds in Swindon was raided and 348 items were seized, of which magistrates ordered 197 (representing over fifty titles) to be destroyed. Among the offending articles were examples of the hard-boiled action thriller that had sprung up in the wake of James Hadley Chase – books like Nat Karta’s The Foolish Virgin Says No, Gene Ross’s Corpse in the Boudoir and Hank Janson’s Don’t Mourn Me, Toots – as well as several magazines including: Ahaaaaaa!!!, Desirée, Flip, Monsieur, Nifty, Oooooo!!!, Pidgy, Radiant, Tricky and Wink.
