Description: FALL GUY By Jerome Barry Garden City, New York: The Crime Club, 1960. First edition (stated). Former owner's signature to the front endpaper, else a near fine copy in bright yellow cloth; in a near fine mildly shelfworn photo-illustrated dust jacket. A nervous tenant complains to his unscrupulous manager, convinced that someone else is using his apartment while he is at work. Soon it becomes evident that there are far more serious matters in this Manhattan apartment building--when murder moves in. A Crime Club selection. "Jerome Barry [1894-1975] was a prolific writer of stories, vignettes and poetry for the slicks of the 1930s and early 40s, magazines such as The Saturday Evening Post, Collier’s and Liberty. His first hardcover mystery was Murder with Your Malted, the first of three detective novels featuring a soda jerk named Chick Varney who does the investigative chores."--Mystery File.
