Philo Vance Discount
Who’s the swankiest, snootiest sleuth in old Manhattan town? That would be Philo Vance, whose exploits made for the biggest bestsellers in the USA in the late 1920s and into the Depression. He’s an unbearable know-it-all, raises “patronizing” to an art-form, and yet there was no one more popular: Every one of the 12 novels was filmed—often with big stars like William Powell, Basil Rathbone, and Louise Brooks—and thousands of GIs marched off to WWII with Philo novels in their backpacks. With our Very Best Discount (for only the Very Best People), you can investigate the Philo Phenom for yourself: Discover why he’s The Sleuth You Love to Loathe.
