The Crimes of the Scarlet Ace: The Complete Stories of Major Lacy & Amusement, Inc.
by Theodore A. Tinsley
introduction by Will Murray
Major John Tattersall Lacy, once of the U.S. Marines—and now field leader of the Emergency Council for Crime Control with orders to meet the racketeers at their own game, to fight terror with terror and death with death.... Backed with tremendous resources, and the power of the six foremost men in the metropolis, Lacy and his ex-marine mates have broadcast their challenge—"Run, rat, or die!" And underworld warlords ready an answer....
From the author of The Shadow! Reprinted in its entirety for the first time, the complete saga of Lacy’s battle with the underworld army of the Scarlet Ace from the pages of Black Aces and All Detective. And it features an all-new introduction by Will Murray.

October 20, 2011well, it is what it is with Pulpville. If they are the only source for a hardcopy edition, I’ll get it, tho I’d prefer something nicer like what Altus does.

November 13, 2011Busy Altus week for me as I finished reading the Black Bat Companion, received my hardcover order of King of Fang & Claw and Scarlet Ace (beautiful books), and ordered Green Lama 2! Keep up the good work Matt! I may have to break into the retirement fund early to keep getting everything, but they are worth it! I am a firm supporter!
