Laid in is a laminated copy of the dust jacket reduced so as to be used as a bookmark. The book is now housed in a home-made acetate dust wrapper. "The circus was playing Madison Square Garden and Police Commissioner Thatcher Colt was there looking into some "accidents" that had befallen the troupe and led to one death. Some of the star acts had received letters warning them not to perform opening night which happened to be Friday the Thirteenth. All the artists insisted they would go on anyway. "The Queen of The Air" Josie LaTour plunges to her death from the high rings and it doesn't take Colt long to figure it's murder. The suspects are many. From the husband family finances are tight and she has a big insurance policy to the catcher in the act who has loved for years since before she married her husband to the rich man that owned majority interest in the circus and wanted her she not him. Then there's the personal maid a former well-to-do lady who was on the end of LaTour's high temper more than once. As was her equipment manager. Colt keeps dogging along checking out every clue. The district attorney is concentrating his efforts on the husband and his ex-wife believing them to be the guilty parties to the exclusion of all other evidence." -- Goodreads.

1960210231960. African American law enforcement photographic archive 1940s-1969 documenting the presence and professional roles of Black police officers during the decades spanning segregation and the Civil Rights Movement in the United States. These images record individual officers peer relationships and public-facing roles within police institutions providing visual evidence of Black participation in law enforcement at a time of limited access to such positions. The archive captures both formal portraiture and informal interaction situating these individuals within evolving social and institutional conditions.<br /> <br /> Archive comprises 11 vintage silver gelatin photographs ranging in size from approximately 2.75" x 5.5" to 5.5" x 7.25". A sequence of six smaller photographs depicts several African American men in uniform including officers wearing double-breasted dress coats with badges a patrolman in standard duty attire and one image showing a man in a Marine uniform standing beside a police officer. One photograph captures two uniformed officers shaking hands suggesting a moment of professional recognition such as academy completion. Another image shows two officers flanking a third individual in civilian attire possibly a legal official based on positioning and dress. A separate photograph includes two older uniformed officers with a handwritten inscription on the verso reading "This is your Brother A.B. and his buddy Ezell Anderson." The archive also includes a 1969 press photograph identifying Herbert A. Craigwell as a high-ranking officer in the Boston Police Department alongside accompanying text referencing increasing representation of Black officers in major city forces. An additional press image identifies Los Angeles patrolman Ronald Allen described in relation to the gradual inclusion of Black officers within urban policing structures. A signed photo of a policeman wearing small round glasses a hat with the number 7 above "Police" reads "Lovingly Kenny" depicting an African American officer likely from the mid 1940s at a municipal department.<br /> <br /> Created during a period marked by both institutional exclusion and gradual integration these photographs provide a record of African American participation in law enforcement prior to and during major Civil Rights reforms. The inclusion of press images and personal photographs reflects both public recognition and private documentation of professional identity. Minor edge wear and light fading visible across several photographs; overall very good condition. This archive offers a focused visual record of Black law enforcement presence in mid-twentieth-century America. unknown
