‎S S Van Dine [PSEUD Willard Huntington Wright (1888-1939)] <b><font color=blue>with a signed letter laid in</b><font>‎

‎The Kennel Murder Case: A Philo Vance Story‎

‎<p>3071 blank6 ad pages with diagrams. Small octavo 7 3/4" x 5 1/2" bound in publisher's original black cloth with chartreuse lettering to spine and cover in original jacket. An association letter laid in from the author signed First edition with the first printing "A" on copyright page.<br /><br />Typed letter to Mrs Carolyn Wells Houghton signed with original envelope. Carolyn Wells 1862-1942 was an American writer and poet. Wells was married to Hadwin Houghton the heir of the Houghton-Mifflin publishing empire founded by Bernard Houghton. She heard <em>That Affair Next Door</em> 1897 one of Anna Katharine Green's mystery novels being read aloud and was immediately captivated by the unraveling of the puzzle. From that point onward she devoted herself to the mystery genre. Among the most famous of her mystery novels were the Fleming Stone Detective Stories which—according to Allen J. Hubin's <em>Crime Fiction IV: A Comprehensive Bibliography 1749–2000</em> 2003—number 61 titles.<br /><br />Wright wrote as a critic and journalist until 1923 when he became ill from what was given out as overwork but was in reality a secret drug addiction according to John Loughery's biography Alias S.S. Van Dine. His doctor confined him to bed supposedly because of a heart ailment but actually because of a cocaine addiction for more than two years. In frustration and boredom he began collecting and studying thousands of volumes of crime and detection. In 1926 this paid off with the publication of his first S. S. Van Dine novel <em>The Benson Murder Case</em>. Wright took his pseudonym from the abbreviation of "steamship" and from Van Dine which he claimed was an old family name. Wright wrote a series of short stories for Warner Brothers film studio in the early 1930's. These stories were used as the basis for a series of 12 short films each around 20 minutes long that were released in 1930 - 1931. Of these "The Skull Murder Mystery" 1931 shows Wright's vigorous plot construction. It is also notable for its non-racist treatment of Chinese characters something quite unusual in its day. As far as it is known none of Van Dine's screen treatments have been published in book form and none of the manuscripts survive. Short films were popular then and Hollywood made hundreds of them during the studio era. Except for a handful of comedy silents however most of these films are forgotten and not listed in film reference books. Wright died April 11 1939 in New York City a year after the publication of an unpopular experimental novel that incorporated one of the biggest stars in radio comedy <em>The Gracie Allen Murder Case</em> and leaving a complete novelette-length story that was intended as a film vehicle for Sonja Henie and was published posthumously as <em>The Winter Murder Case</em>.<br /><br /><em>The Kennel Murder Case</em> is a 1933 murder mystery novel written by S. S. Van Dine with fictional detective Philo Vance investigating a complex locked room mystery. One of the Coe brothers is found dead in his bedroom locked from the inside and the other brother is found the next morning dead in the downstairs closet. There is also the clue of a wounded Doberman Pinscher a mysteriously broken piece of priceless Chinese porcelain and a cast of suspicious family members servants and associates. Philo Vance solves the case based on his knowledge of dog breeding Chinese porcelain and the annals of remarkable antique crimes. A Warner Bros. film version of <em>The Kennel Murder Case</em> appeared in 1933. The film was directed by Michael Curtiz and starred William Powell as Philo Vance reprising the role after appearing as Vance in three earlier films for Paramount and Mary Astor as Hilda Lake the victims' niece. Many film historians including William K. Everson who pronounced it a "masterpiece" in the August 1984 issue of <em>Films in Review</em> consider it one of the greatest screen adaptations of a Golden Age mystery novel and rank it with the 1946 film <em>Green for Danger</em>. It was remade by Warners in 1940 as <em>Calling Philo Vance</em> with James Stephenson as Vance and William Clemens directing. World War II-era espionage stood in for the skulduggery of the art world in the remake.<br /><br /><strong>Condition:</strong><br /><br />An small old bookseller's tag at the back head inner hinge slightly cocked.

The book has a brilliant travel account to Sweden from a Turkish perspective. Only three institutional copies in Turkey (2) and Netherlands (1, Leiden) libraries in OCLC: 949541692.; Özege 2474. First and Only Edition. Swedish gymnastics gained institutional structure by the courtesy of Ling in the early 19th century and forced the dominance areas of German, French, and British systems, which were used in school physical education in Europe from the middle of the century, due to their fully defined and justified pedagogical, psychological, military and medical functions, and increased its impact in a short time. Civil or military personnel sent by European governments received education in Stockholm's Royal Central Institute of Gymnastics, which provided Swedish gymnastics education from 1813, and proved to be the most important, leading, and exemplary institution of its genre. On their return to their homelands, they pioneered and tried to introduce Swedish gymnastics in/into their own countries. Military and political conditions in his country would turn a soldier-engineer into a physical educator and pave the way for Selim Sirri Tarcan's travel to Sweden in 1909. German Gymnastics (Turnen) based French Amoros Gymnastics is one of the physical education movements which Turkey met after political reforms of 1839 (Tanzimat) and it was incorporated into first military school then civil school curricula as from mid-19th century. Selim Sirri Tarcan encountered this apparatus gymnastics course at Mekteb-i Sultani (today Galatasaray High School), whose curriculum was created according to the French system and came to the forefront with his skills. After his graduation from Military Engineering School, he put effort into teaching and promotion via media of this gymnastics, rather than dealing with his military duties. However, the posture caused by his muscular body he developed by strength exercises and liked to show on every occasion, and his general health problems would make him question the gymnastics system he was governed by. The problem was also in Europe's agenda, and physical education entered the area of interest of public health policies, and the opinion that it is the most convenient and economical means to improve individual and public health became widespread, which popularized Swedish gymnastics appealing to this field. As of the late-19th century, Swedish-style gymnastics began to be promoted by medical-gymnastics institutes founded in the Ottoman capital as well as by published articles on this system by physicians and intellectuals knowledgeable on a sport-health relationship. Selim Sirri Bey, who was also attracted by Swedish gymnastics, turned his penalty of being sent abroad due to his active participation as a soldier in the constitutional movement of 1908 to opportunity and asked authorities to send him to Stockholm's Royal Central Institute of Gymnastics. During his higher education on gymnastics, he was also impressed by Sweden's healthy social structure into which physical education was integrated, heard of Zander, whose therapeutic gymnastics exercises were being applied in clinics opened on his behalf in European cities, and took medical gymnastics and massage classes at Zander's clinic in Stockholm. Selim Sirri Bey recognized pedagogical and scie‎
