**Content Description:** This page contains story prose from a pulp crime/hardboiled fiction magazine, with substantial advertising on the right side. The text depicts a dialogue between criminal characters named Duryea and Egan discussing a series of crimes involving theft and framing—mention is made of a "General Storage Fur job," frame-ups, and characters named Patty, Baby, and Big Angelo. The visible story excerpt ends with character Duryea considering whether to contact Officer Crain. The right column features period advertisements for items like air rifles, typewriters, asthma remedies, detective correspondence courses, and false teeth by mail—typical commercial appeals from early-20th-century pulp magazines.

She tied in with Big Angelo over in the city, figured on getting her revenge by running me out and send- ing Patty up for a stretch.” “Yeh?” “Sure. Some of my boys pulled the General Storage Fur job. I gave her the five furs myself. She wanted some. Then she makes a trade with Golio.” “How come them strangers was in your own apartment?” “They wasn’t there unti! after I’d left, Duryea. Soon’s I saw her with Mulizza tonight I guessed her play. I already knew she’d framed Patty on the coat job because she was the one I’d given the General Storage furs to.” He glanced around at the unconscious gunmen and continued, “IT will say, Duryea, you wrecked ’em!” Duryea thought: Yeh, Egan was wrong. It don’t pay to be no gent, Duryea looked admiringly at his big ham of a fist. Wouldn’t be a bad idea to call on Officer Crain right now. “that’s all Please mention Acp Fiction Group when answering advertisement (5/57) — RAP FOR A RAT— ae tt mS OGG Te NEW DAISY. rs mA | LIGHTNING- LOADER 2 SECONDS tor Ready !—new Dee Taghining= Loador S.
