Off-topic, sort of, but it happened today, so here we go:
ReplyDeleteOn this fine day (Monday, December 20, 2021), I took delivery of a book I'd ordered several months back, which becomes my Christmas present to myself:
Shooting Script And Other Mysteries, by William Link and Richard Levinson, newly published by Crippen & Landru of Cincinnati OH.
This is a collection of the earliest short stories by L&L, dating back to
the first one in 1953: "Whistle While You Work", as it appeared in Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine in that year.
Also appearing here is the submission letter that Bill Link sent to Mercury Publications, introducing himself and his partner Dick Levinson.
Also also appearing, the acceptance letter/contract from EQMM, agreeing to pay "ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-FIVE ($135.) DOLLARS" for all the various rights (with an additional stipend of "THIRTY-FIVE ($35) DOLLARS" for the first reprint rights, and some other stuff here and there ... all authorized by Lawrence E. Spivak, publisher, and Ellery Queen, Editor.
( ...Yes, that Lawrence E. Spivak ...)
Anyway, there's 17 stories here, dating from 1953 to 1966, while L&L were breaking into TV; entry-level stuff to be sure, but Bill and Dick clearly had the goods right from the start.
I should point out here that I bought the Special Limited Edition, cloth-bound, limited edition signed by Margery Nelson Link (Bill's widow) and Chris Levinson (Dick's surviving daughter); the whole thing set me back $51 (shipping included), but an icon is an icon, I guess ...
Crippen & Landru offers a less-expensive trade paperback, in case you're interested.
Just thought I'd let you know ...
