Hardcover. Condición: Fair. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Good dj. Illustrated by (dj) F.W.O. Ilustrador. 3rd printing. [ex-lending library copy, although minimally marked as such (no stamping, labels mostly removed from ffep, four-digit call number in ink at bottom of rear endpaper; the book itself is shelfworn, with the boards showing through the cloth at all corners and at a couple of spots on the bottom edge, but the binding is good and the book is internally clean despite some soiling to the page edges; the jacket is worn but largely intact, having been (in typical rental-library fashion) backed with brown paper and affixed securely to the pastedowns at both flaps]. First of only three novels published by this hard-boiled writer (all of which are quite scarce), whose career was largely confined to the pages of "Black Mask," "Dime Detective" and the like. A suspense yarn that takes place largely aboard a passenger train, it was filmed twice: by Fox in 1934 under its original title, then again by 20th Century-Fox in 1941 as a "Michael Shayne" mystery with the title cleverly changed to SLEEPERS WEST, lest anybody suspect the writers of having no imagination. (The latter was actually a nifty little B picture with Lloyd Nolan as Shayne.).

First edition. First edition. Inscribed in ink on the front free fly leaf to magazine editor and publisher Harry Steeger III: "For Harry Steeger ? whose sense of the ridiculous I appreciate as much as his checks ? Frederick Nebel." Henry Steeger III (May 26, 1903 ? December 25, 1990)[1][2] was an American magazine editor and publisher who co-founded Popular Publications in 1930, one of the major publishers of pulp magazines, with former classmate Harold S. Goldsmith. Fine bright copy in a bright, fresh dust jacket, lightly sunned on the spine, light wear to the spine ends and corners, with a small closed tear to top edge of rear cover. One of the great debuts from the hard-boiled school of writers, written by Nebel over the course of eight months, in which he drew from his early experience as a brakeman on passenger trains. The entire novel is set during a ten-hour train ride from the Midwest to New York, involving a dozen characters; most of the characters appear to be random travelers, though five of the twelve are there to pursue their own agendas in advance of a soon-to-begin murder trial. A significant association copy, inscribed to Harry Steeger (1903-1990), co-founder of Popular Publications, which between 1930-1972 was one of the largest publishers of American pulp magazines. Nebel's prodigious output for the pulp magazines was legendary, as was his popularity. He wrote numerous stories for Popular publications, and several authors in Steeger's stable complained to him for paying Nebel more than them . four cents a word instead of two. Nebel presentations are uncommon . we've seen just a handful over the years, and very few of those have been of a significant nature.
