Hardback. Condizione: Very Good. First Edition. Jardin, Rex (pseudonym of Robert F. and Eve Burkhardt). The Devil's Mansion. New York: The Fiction League, 1931. First edition, probably. Two other publishers brought out editions around the same time: Jacobsen Publishing Company (undated) and W. J. Black (undated, but a newspaper…ad for this edition appeared in 1935). Jacobsen identified itself as a reprint house. Tebbel identifies Black as a "mail-order publisher"; both of these editions come to 291 pages, suggesting strongly they were printed from the same sheets, or the same plates, as the edition of the Fiction League, which was a book club. It should be needless to add that not a few books over the years have been first published on a subscription basis by clubs. Octavo, pp. [1-6] 7-291 [ 292-296: blank]. Original purple cloth, front and spine panels stamped in black, top edge of text block stained gray. Just a bit of fading to spine panel cloth, which also has some faint vertical creases, a flaw seemingly endemic to this book, otherwise a very good, clean copy. #3517. $100. A weird Gothic thriller set mostly in a rural part of British Columbia. The Burkhardts teamed up to write several detective stories, and the final portion of this novel does move in that direction as the hero (a writer) must exercise powers of detection in order to find and rescue the heroine, who has been abducted by a monstrous dwarf. But the bulk of the novel places it more accurately in the category of the weird (as attested by its presence in the 1948 Bleiler Checklist). Key elements of the story are indisputably fantastic. The novel reads smoothly and provides the kind of low-brow weird thrills for which other between-the-war writers (such as Hansom, Ryan and Masterman) have received credit much less deservedly. A blurb in the Black edition summarizes the situation pretty accurately: ". Miss Boisevan, paralyzed old woman, advertises for young companions who 'must have blue eyes'! Miss Boisevan owns a clear crystal ring and a pet chameleon which roams over her dress, attached to a fine gold chain. Miss Boisevan's servant has not uttered a word in twenty years. They live alone in this great house, all of whose mirrors have been removed ." There is also a giant wolf-dog and a musician who turns out to be a sinister dwarf.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Good. The Campden Ruby Murder, by Adam Bliss; Rich & Cowan Ltd., London, 1934. First UK edition. Adam Bliss was the pseudonym of Robert & Eve Burkhardt, an American husband and wife team, who wrote 3 mysteries under the Adam Bliss name. This book was first published as…"The Camden Ruby Mystery" in the United States, by Barse & Co. in 1931. It was then re-issued by Grosset & Dunlap around that same time. This novel is a "locked-room mystery". It was published in the UK as "The Campden Ruby Mystery". The name change was likely due to the fact that in the UK there was a real "Lord Camden" that could have been an issue. This book, 284 pages, is in very-good condition. The dust jacket is in good condition and is now enclosed in a protective mylar wrap. This murder mystery is exceedingly scarce in any of its publications, either in the United States or the United Kingdom. Even more so in the dust jacket.
