Thanks to Anthony Tollin's Sanctum Books I am about to fulfill a lifelong dream and read the first few years of Doc Savage. I picked up a few paperbacks when I was young, but never really pursued it. When I checked into collecting them, I despaired ever finding them all. It will take several years, but with an average of two a month thanks to Tollin's efforts, I am making great headway.
With some new volumes featuring 1933's The Phantom City and 1934's Mystery of the Snow this summer by my reckoning they will have reprinted all of the first and second years. Those early Doc adventures have a full-blooded quality to them that I really like. It will be neat soon hopefully to be able to read the first year through in order perhaps. That will be downright exciting.
NOTE: I WILL UPDATE THIS LIST AS MY DOC SAVAGE READING CONTINUES.
