It's suddenly occurred to me that some classic female hb
writers are out-of-print: Helen Nielsen, Leigh Brackett, Vin
Packer, Dolores Hitchens, Dorothy Hughes. Given the current
popularity of Paretesky, etc., I wonder if some reprint
editions of their best work might not be sucessful. (One
could even imagine current female pi writers doing
introductions.)
I'd buy them, anyways.
