A Vintage Hardcover Book (measures 3 1/2" x 4 1/2" [9 x 11 cm]; 424 pages) (Learn More) Dick Tracy is a fictional police detective created by Chester Gould, initially debuting in the Detroit Mirror in 1931. The strip continues through today. Not only did Dick Tracy have wonderful villains (like Batman, but most of them were very politically incorrect), but he also featured then-cutting edge technology including a wrist phone! Several movie adaptations of the crime stories have been made, most notably as serials in the 1940s and in the feature film starring Warren Beatty in the title role in 1990. Important Added Info: Note that in the 1930s, Whitman Publishing had great success with "Big Little Books", and the similar "Better Little Books", which were tiny books that each had an image on one side and text on the other. They were mostly aimed at children and teenagers, and often were adapted from comic strips, comic books, movies, etc. Also note that we have pictured the front cover, the title page, and the interior page that shows the publishing information, and one or more interior 2-page spreads, which should greatly help you judge the condition of this book. Condition: fair to good. The spine is completely missing and the book has other defects (see our images). Learn More about condition grades
