SWEETHEART STORIES.
New York: Dell Publishing Co., Inc., 1938. Octavo, single issue, pictorial wrappers. Pulp magazine. Includes part one (of four) of "Deserted!" by Cornell Woolrich. "...is historically important as Woolrich's first piece of fiction during his crime-writing period that approached the length of a novel, and to the student of his earlier work it's a fascinating mix of conventional romance ingredients with customary Woolrich plot flubs-and with material lifted bodily from two previous pulp suspense tales." - Nevins, Cornell Woolrich: First You Dream, Then You Die, p. 204. It does have crime elements (a woman marries a gangster), and has not been reprinted, which may be for the best. Dampstained throughout, light edge wear with a few tiny chips, a good copy with readable contents. (28283). Item #28283
