Hardcover. Condizione: Fair. No Dust Jacket. First Edition. (lacking the original dust jacket, but encased in a well-made "Colorcopy" reproduction of same; see 2nd image posted with this listing, and see Notes for further explanation) [well-worn copy, spine a bit turned, front hinge a little weak, fraying/exposure of boards at most corners, remnants of formerly glued-down jacket on both pastedowns]. "Chet Phelps foolishly expected merely some slight relaxation when he took a try at the wheel at the Cabana Club. Within a few hours, he had made the acquaintance of several notorious gangsters, passed out, regained consciousness in a bedroom co-inhabited by a beautiful blonde, and landed smack in the middle of a murder case." Another grade-B mystery from the prolific Phoenix Press, whose whacky, sometimes so-bad-they're-great books were affectionately chronicled by Bill Pronzini in his "Gun in Cheek" surveys. Phoenix tailored their product almost exclusively for the then-thriving rental-library market, in which most books were beat to hell and then discarded, resulting in their extreme scarcity today. (This copy may well have been a rental-library book, although it's not marked as such.) George Childerness -- which may or may not have been a pseudonym; with Phoenix, it was hard to know -- is documented as the author of just one other mystery novel, "Too Many Murderers" (1946), also published by Phoenix. NOTE again that this book bears a "Colorcopy" reproduction of the original dust jacket, to serve the dual purpose of protecting the book from further wear and enhancing its appearance on the shelf; its presence has not been factored in to our pricing. (A "Colorcopy" jacket, as distinct from a facsimile jacket, is a color print of a raw (unrestored) scan of an original jacket, and therefore displays whatever flaws or blemishes were present on the original.). Illustrated by (dj) "Hanley" (illustratore). …
