RARA-AVIS: The Hard-Boiled Omnibus

Sat, 5 Sep 1998 14:07:52 +0900 The three stories, which are included in the hardcover edition (Simon &
Schuster, 1946) of THE HARD-BOILED OMINIBUS edited by Joseph Thompson Shaw,
but which are omitted from the paperback edition (Pocket Books, 1952), are:

(According to INDEX TO CRIME AND MYSTERY ANTHOLOGIES)

"The Devil Suit" by J.-J. des Ormeaux
"Murder Mixup" by George Harmon Coxe
"Sister Act" by Charles G. Booth

Also, the contents order of the two editions are different. I think I have
the both editions somewhere, but I don't know the exact reason of the
omission.
