Short Fiction Various: Past Masters Twenty-Eight, v1, 4 May 2021

[Pulpmeister]

Starting with two pulp novelettes, and then a selection of short stories. John Haslette Vahey wrote many novels under that name, and as by John Loder; Arthur Somers Roche was a prolific pulp short story writer with several series characters, and he also wrote numerous action novels. The Melville Davisson Post story is not a detective or crime tale. "Ben Bowyang" took his pen name from the cords tied above the calfs of working men to hitch the lower legs of their trousers out of the dirt.

Again, these are stray stories for which I can find no digital collection or anthology already. Available on-line bibliographies do not show any collections of either Vahey's or Roches' short stories.
