Seller's Description
1st CHARLIE CHAN BOOK!! House Without a Key! 1925 HC! $35.00 obo!
This is the First Printing of the very First Appearance of Earl Derr Biggers Detective Charlie Chan, who went on to become a world-wide phenomena! As a matter of fact, the very first movie was based on this book and was made 11 months later!! That's pretty impressive! Charlie Chan has been in dozens of movies, cartoons, toys and comic books over the years! The book is very solid with all pages firmly attached and complete with a red cloth cover!
From Goodreads: "The House Without a Key" is the classic novel in which Charlie Chan makes his debut as Inspector of the Honolulu Police Department. Earl Derr Biggers brings Honolulu to life with deft descriptions of the landscape and of its hybrid ethnic communities. With the creation of Detective Chan, Biggers also shatters stereotypes and is ahead of his time in highlighting the positive aspects of Chinese-Hawaiian culture, just as his skillful rendering of San Francisco is noteworthy of its modernity and keen sense of place.
