The blonde in lower six

by Erle Stanley Gardner

THE BLONDE IN LOWER SIX, by itself, is novel length and an excellent story about Ed Jenkins, The Phantom Crook, who was one of ESG's most popular characters and who appeared numerous times in Black Mask Magazine, most recently in 1945. THE BLONDE IN LOWER SIX somehow was misplaced for nearly twenty years and was then published in the September 1961 issue of Argosy.
