The Adventures of a Professional Corpse ā€“ four stories of a man who will die for you ā€”for a fee. The Artificial Honeymoon (1940) ā€“ The secret of one of the strangest professions in the world. The Blind Farmer and the Strip Dancer (1940) ā€“ One man finds that death is at a premium, and that dying brings big dividends. The Wife of the Humorous Gangster (1940) ā€“ Thereā€™s good money in dying. It is surprising how many people can make use of a dead man. The Affair of the Shuteye Medium (1941) ā€“ He certainly took a dive when he invaded the spirit world! Henry James Oā€™Brien Bedford-Jones (1887-1949) was born in Napanee, Ontario, Canada in 1887. After being encouraged to try writing by his friend, writer William Wallace Cook, Bedford-Jones began writing dime novels and pulp magazine stories. Bedford-Jones was an enormously prolific writer; the pulp editor Harold Hersey once recalled meeting Bedford-Jones in Paris, where he was working on two novels simultaneously, each story on its own separate typewriter. He wrote over 100 novels, earning the nickname ā€œKing of the Pulpsā€. Bedford-Jones became a naturalized United States citizen in 1908. He died on May 6, 1949 (aged 62) in Beverly Hills, California. The Adventures of a Professional Corpse has 4 illustrations.
