Here's what has gone before . . .

SATURDAY: Daffy Dill cover gallery HERE
SUNDAY: "A Dirge for Pagliaccio" HERE
MONDAY: "A Slug for Cleopatra" HERE

DAFFY DILL returns in "A Slug for Cleopatra" by Richard Sale (Read it HERE)

DAFFY DILL WEEK is still young (there are still five days to go), and we've already presented two fine stories and a cover gallery. Here's another adventure, from the March 30, 1935 issue of Detective Fiction Weekly.

Come on back tomorrow, when we look at how "A Slug for Cleopatra" was (sort of) made into a movie. And keep your eyes on Friday, when Monte Herridge will give us the lowdown on Daffy's amazing career.





















TOMORROW: A truly Overlooked Film - Find the Witness (based on "A Slug for Cleopatra:")
