FULLER, Samuel Michael
The Dark Page
First edition. About fine in a moderately worn, near very good dustwrapper with two small nicks at the crown, and a couple of tears on the front panel. The third novel and first mystery by the future cult film director, written while he was a corporal in the Army. Set partially in the Bowery in New York City, a newspaper editor murders a blackmailer, and his star reporter is hot on the trail. Basis for the 1952 film noir Scandal Sheet directed by Phil Karlson, and featuring Broderick Crawford, John Derek, and Donna Reed. Exceptionally scarce.
