I would dearly love to do a web page covering items of ephemera – publicity material, trade handouts, point of sale material, interesting letters, bookmarks, in fact anything that isn't a published piece of work connected to Dennis Wheatley. I have a limited number of items, but not enough to make a page a worthwhile project. Is there anyone out there who can help with pictures/information?

Just registered with the Library although I have been a regular visitor to the website for some time. I received a gift of a bookmark with a book I purchased recently which, it is alleged, was already in the 1st edition. It is certainly from around 1950 although undated and I will send separately a photo which may not do justice and a photocopy in the mail. Good luck with this new venture.

First, my apologies for not signing my previous post.
Second, having checked the actual bookmark, it lists the titles, but *not* the historical dates of the series. (Those are in an appendix in the book itself.)
Anyway, I have no scanner myself, but I will see who among my friends might be able to do this for me.

Thanks for this topic Bob. After reading Jim's reply, I thought the bookmark looked very familiar. So I went to my collection and pulled out my copy of Desperate Measures which I hadn't looked at for over 30 years. Sure enough, inside the book was an identical bookmark to Jim's! So now I can say that I too have some Wheatley ephemera!
