Editorial Review:
Product Description:
A hilarious parody of the detective genre - Gubb emulates Sherlock Holmes and maintains an office for his two occupations: correspondence-school detective and wallpaper hanger. One of the first and best detective parodies.
'Detecktating is my aim and my profession.' Thus speaks Philo Gubb in this classic volume of criminally silly comic exploits; with irresistible period illustrations by Rea Irvin.
Philo Gubb: Correspondence-School Detective was picked by none other than Ellery Queen (Queen's Quorum #61) as one of the most important detective books ever written.
