Book Porn: Hank Janson

Hank Janson was someone a bit like “Mike Longshott” – a pseudonymous author of pulp (pseudo-American) fiction who was actually British author Stephen Daniel Frances. Some of them were banned or pulped due to their supposedly “obscene” content.

I picked these up in a second hand bookshop in Kuala Lumpur a few years ago, and held on to them. Aren’t they gorgeous?
