Books Update: Edgar Wallace – The Man Who Wrote Too Much?
*Crime, Spies & Sleaze: Edgar Wallace was one of the most prolific and successful crime/thriller writers of the early-mid 20th Century. Very many of his ideas have been adapted into film and TV series, notably King Kong, the Four Just Men and The Mind Of Mr. J. G. Reeder. From my youth I remember the Edgar Wallace Mystery Hour TV show. So far he has been sadly unrepresented in our Crime section, but no more. We have added a selection of the ever popular Pan editions, including 6 Great Pan. The dates range from 1950 to 1975, so there are a range of cover styles, mainly in GD or VG grades. Although there’s no denying his massive popular appeal, his output has earned him the delightful sobriquet: ‘The Man Who Wrote Too Much!’
