Argosy did, I know, do some of the early mid-Sixties books at least, as you suggest (Like Love, Eighty Million Eyes...).

I've got a (I think *more or less* complete) list of his 'Short Stories' - a broad definition - you can see here, if that's relevant: heyzine.com/flip-book/f3...

Wow! If you think there’s anything useful I could contribute re: Evan Hunter / Ed McBain (and his million pseudonyms), do let me know.

(Shane Black *loves* the 87th Precinct. I can’t find an interview where he doesn’t mention the series!)

And still they keep making these films! And still they keep not interviewing me about them (which is kind of fine because I’m still battle-scarred from the ones I watched)

I've been very SIXTIES in my current reads. It's weird to stumble on a book (Purple Place...) that's set on land. A totally different vibe.

...which is relevant as the original treatment/draft of The Blackboard Jungle was called 'The Tiger Pit', after a line in Eliot's poem Lines For An Old Man.

I mean, I'll do it at some point for the socials anyway.
