Sobre este artículo
Bobbs-Merrill Company. 1926. First Edition in aged hunter green cloth boards with embossed red lettering on front board and spine.(see photos). Paper is age-toned without foxing. Unclipped ($2.00) jacket is bright orange on front with sunned spine commonly seen on other copies. Jacket had paper loss on front (upper right and lower left-see photos) and several small chips on margins. Jacket protected with removable mylar cover.
Earl Derr Biggers (1884-1933) wrote the series of Charlie Chan detective novels with The Chinese Parrot being the second in the series and seemingly the most popular. The story involves two mysterious deaths, the first being the parrot. End of story? I think not. The book was adapted for film twice, as The Chinese Parrot (1927) and as Charlie Chan's Courage (1934). Both films are considered lost films so we're left with the book to solve the mystery of the Chinese Parrot. 5x7.5 in. 316 pg.
