Dean Street Press<\/strong><\/span><\/a> publishes titles that have long gone out of print including 24 from Peter Cheyney many of which were published by PAN and use the same artwork. I have found at least five that have PAN artwork but are not the right titles so here is a quiz. Try guessing what these Cheyney titles were originally and for the answer click on the book cover.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

When I had a better look I noticed the signatures had been removed so I email Dean Street Pres and Victoria kindly replied to say “These editions were published under my brother, Rupert Heath who died last year, so I\u2019m afraid I cannot offer an explanation about the missing signatures. Personally I agree that the artists deserve recognition but Rupert was an art historian and did everything by the rules. Perhaps the images he found had already had the signatures removed?”<\/span><\/strong><\/em> If he was using the PAN editions which are mostly ‘PEFF’ ‘Keay’ or ‘Sheldon’ then they are clearly signed as in the 3rd PAN printing of 139 ‘Sorry You’ve Been Troubled’<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a> but oddly not G160 ‘Dark Duet’<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a> by Sam Peffer<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

Having picked up a copy of ’11 Harrowhouse Street’<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a> with a dust jacket recently I was really pleased to get a copy of the US edition of ‘Eastern Nights – and\u00a0 Flights’<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a> by Alan Bott, founder of PAN Books, also with a dust jacket. The book itself is fairly common but this is the first dust jacket I’ve seen although not the most inspiring. Still trying to find out if this was the ‘house style’ for a series as was common here in the UK?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>This weeks book with the same title and same number but this time two years apart is for Peter Cheyney’s ‘Uneasy Terms’<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a> published by PAN as G280 in 1959 and 1961. Both covers are by Sam ‘PEFF’ Peffer but why PAN felt the need for a revamp but kept the exact same back cover I’ve no idea. Not sure who is modelling on the 1961 edition but it\u00a0 doesn’t look like Kitty.<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
