"Christopher B. Booth is almost entirely forgotten today; but in 1910s through the 1930s, he was a prolific author of mysteries and westerns under his own name and the pseudonuym “John Jay Chichester. ” Street & Smith’s book publishing arm, Chelsea House, collected a number of his pulp stories in book form, most famously in the volume entitled Mr. Clackworthy. Mr. Clackworthy assembles 9 stories from Street & Smith’s Detective Story Magazine featuring con man Amos Clackworthy, who preyed on the rich & unscrupulous. If you are a fan of Johnston McCulley’s character Thubway Tham (collected in 2 volumes by Wildside Press), you may already know that Tham and Clackworthy had a pair of crossover stories, one by Booth and one by McCulley. Each antihero got the better of the other in his author’s tale.
