Bottom Liner Blues
New York: The Mysterious Press. Fine in Fine dust jacket. 1993. First Edition. Hardcover. Remainder mark on top of text block. Protected in a removable Brodart archival cover. Blue boards with burnt orange spine imprinted with title and author in metallic blue. Burnt orange endpapers. Full number line 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1. . 250 pages. A Mario Balzic Detective Mystery No. 5. With its shut-down mines with its scarred and restive blue-collar descendants of Eastern European and Italian immigrants Rocksburg Pennsylvania is in the midst of tough times. And no one has it tougher than its own police chief Mario Balzic. Working harder and longer hours than he ever did in his long-ago rookie days Balzic again pilots a black-and-white through the town's brooding streets. The recent death of his mother whose warm presence is especially missed by his wife Ruth doesn't make it easier. Balzic answers a call: a strange woman Valery mother of a young daughter named Coo warns that her violent husband may exact a brutal form of revenge on a truck-driver with a shady past. She wants Balzic to head off the attack but supplies few details. Balzic senses worse trouble ahead than suggested by Valery - and events prove Balzic's instincts apocalyptically correct. Meanwhile at the local tavern Balzic encounters Myushkin a wild deceptively eccentric Russian-American writer with nine novels to his credit no visible means of support and an alarming facility with a .22 revolver. It's Myushkin who becomes Balzic's spiritual guide through the case - and a peculiarly American distinctly personal brand of hell. . The Mysterious Press hardcover

The Man Who Liked Slow Tomatoes: A Mario Balzic Detective Novel
Boston: David R. Godine Publisher. Fine. 2002. 1st Paperback Edition. Trade Paperback. 187 pages. A Mario Balzic Detective Mystery No. 5. K. C. Constantine's Mario Balzic is one of those police chiefs so close to his people that nothing moves or even sits still in his town without his knowing how and why. His town is Rocksburg a small coal mining town in western Pennsylvania where most of the coal has run out. In this his fifth case tomatoes curiously ripening out of season are the key. It begins at Muscotti's Bar Balzic's refuge when Jimmy Romanelli sells several baskets of tomatoes to Vinnie Muscotti's barkeep. It ends some weeks later after three deaths and a drained disgusted Balzic unable to take any satisfaction in his solution of Romanelli's murder the proximate cause for Jimmy's twisted passion for growing tomatoes. As in all Balzic novels the Chief is the center of consciousness. He's fiercely unpretentious in absolute command without an officious bone in his head or phrase in his mouth. And so fundamentally gentle and good at what he does that not even his Mozartian profanity succeeds in hiding his detective genius. If you've not met this Serbo-Italian profoundly American cop it's time you did. . David R. Godine, Publisher paperback

Copelan William Chief of Police
Robert and Urban Nichols Missing from Cincinnati Ohio. Thought to Have Been Kidnapped Antiziganism
Cincinnati: By the Author 1912. First Edition. Good. Poster; 12 x 8; beige stock printed in black and illustrated with a photograph; paper fragile and age-toned; upper two corners clipped; old horizontal fold line with two thin closed cuts to edges; residue from a brown paper strip to upper margin of verso; in good to very good condition. A missing poster for two small children from Cincinnati it gave a detailed description of the two brothers the time they were last seen April 29 1912 and the speculation that "Hungarians" might have picked them up. Hungarian-Slovak gypsies emigrated to the US in the late-19th century primarily to Pennsylvania Ohio Michigan Illinois and New York. They would become well-known for making a living by playing music at cafes and restaurants and for being semi-permanently settled unlike the other nomadic Romani groups in the country including the Ludar the Romanichal the Black Dutch etc. Despite that the general perception of the gypsies' roaming lifestyle and strange and secretive culture gave way to widely-spreading antiziganism. An article in the Greenfield Republican from May 23 1912 stated that indeed Hungarian gypsies had been suspected of kidnapping the boys as the former had hurriedly left Cincinnati around the time of the disappearances but ultimately the children had been found by their father drowned in a feed-box in a stable.
