PHILO VANCE MYSTERY DETECTIVE Books, by S.S. VanDine - Set of 6 Spider Web Cover

Description: PHILO VANCE MYSTERY DETECTIVE STORIES, by S.S. VAN DINE, Set of 6 with SPIDER WEB COVERSThese books have copyright dates of 1927, 1928, 1929, 1935, 1936, 1938. and I do not see a publishing date. So, these books either got published intermittently and came out one at a time, or came out sometime after 1938 as a set. These books are JUST SO GOOD LOOKING! These spiderweb covers, maroon web on grey, are so fabulous. The colors in particular just make this amazing design so much more excellent. And the spines all have the author, S. S. Van Dine, the title and COLLIER in gold. Classic. Fabulous. Strangely, there are other Philo Vance mysteries, but only these 6 seem to have been published by Collier in this fabulous spiderweb series binding. There is a list of all the Philo Vance mysteries that was tucked into one of these books. I searched Google and eBay to see if any of them were published by Collier with the spiderweb covers. Nope. They don't seem to have been. Maybe these are the most popular books? You can see that list in the photos, by the way. "S.S. Van Dine was the crime-novel pseudonym of Willard Huntington Wright (1888–1939), an American journalist, critic and novelist. It was as a writer of detective fiction that he found financial success. His series of novels featuring snobbish amateur sleuth and art lover Philo Vance, the first of which was The Benson Murder Case (1926), were so popular that they also lead to movies and radio, and prevented Wright from ever returning to the less lucrative writing of which he would have been more proud." --from Simon & Schuster According to another website, he died at age 50 due to "excessive drinking" in 1939, which means these books were probably published post-humously.
