Bulldog Drummond -- PhotoPlay Edition

1929 United Artists Film -- Dir: F. Richard Jones

starring Ronald Coleman, Montagu Love, Joan Bennett

This story is unsurpassed by any of those enchanting tales that lift the reader out of a prosaic world into the realm of romantic, breathtaking adventure. Bull-Dog Drummond, returned from the wars, finds civilian life dull, flat and unprofitable. But before he finishes with the scrap into which fate flings him, he begins to think that little affair of 1914-1918 was mere child's play. There's a girl too -- and indeed every element of a thoroughly satisfactory book. Love, mystery, humor and thrills dovetailed into thrills, with no time to catch your breath between.

Bulldog Drummond Strikes Back -- PhotoPlay Edition

1934 United Artists Film -- Dir: F. Richard Jones

starring Ronald Coleman, Loretta Young, Warner Oland, Una Merkel

Bulldog Drummond's greatest adventure is this battle with the master criminal who had England by the throat -- Demonico, the mysterious figure who would have robbed the king himself.  It was the brutal murder of Sanderson, Scotland Yard's secret emissary, that put Drummond on the real trail -- the murder to which the only clues were an ink-stained bit of blotting paper, an ink bottle without a cork, a bronze hairpin, and a paper that read the day of the week backwards.  If two, omit first.  But it was the man reading the Times in a quiet club, who said "Damn!  I though it was Tuesday!" that supplied the answer to the maelstrom of terror and destruction that Demonico's sinister greed set into motion.  For swift excitement, adventure, detection, BULLDOG DRUMMOND STRIKES BACK is the strongest and most satisfying of all the famous Bulldog Drummond books.  if you like mystery stories, detective stories, stories of red-blooded action, this is your book.

Bulldog Drummond's Third Round

A virtuoso among crooks, a juggler of diamonds, professors, barons, and kings, a man worthy to spar with the redoubtable Bull Dog Drummond, is this old antagonist. The famous Bull-Dog (who is supposedly dead) uses his ingenious device; assumes his most dramatic disguise -- that of a madman -- and follows up the crook who is playing that "big game" which comes to every gambler at least once in a life time. Bull-Dog Drummond plans a death for Carl Peterson which is diabolically suitable for one of his daring and love of chance. The two men are to fight bare-handed on the edge of a glacial crevasse until one of them shoves the other over the edge to a sure death -- wedged between two walls of ice. The girl Irma is much more life-like than the usual partner of the gentleman highwayman. She is, in fact, a person of considerable interest.

Temple Tower [Crime Club]

Here's the greatest adventure yet undertaken by the most popular, ale-drinking, devil-may-care hero that ever took the law into his own ham-like hands!  A lonely moor, a barricaded house, a reunion of crooks, a merciless strangler at large -- action, peril, murder and still more action!  There's a gasp, a chuckle, and a dozen thrills on every page.
