This is really cool, thanks a lot. As is usual with the really good posts, it'll take a while to go through all the stuff here.

Check out the ad in the upper right of this first page of Confessions magazine. A book edited by James M. Cain called For Men Only, and featuring stories by Hemingway, Steinbeck, Farrell, and Somerset Maugham. I'm going to try and find this, it sounds crazy.
