Description:
London: W.H. Allen, 1959. 8vo, pp. 204. Original red boards, lettered in silver to spine. Illustrated dust jacket. A fine copy in a very near fine dust jacket with just a little darkening to (white) rear panel. First UK edition. First published as an Ace paperback original in the US in 1957. An Ed Noon title. The impossibly prolific Michael Avallone [1924-1999] wrote countless short stories, novels and movie and TV tie-ins, under an army of pseudonyms. The Ed Noon series ran to more than thirty titles; this was number six. There is never any danger of mistaking Avallone for Chekhov: the title character of The Case of the Bouncing Betty is a four hundred pound mattress tester who, according to the blurb, 'jumps on one mattress too many, and comes to a sudden and distressing end.' A fine copy. HUBIN, p. 18
