Mapback Mondays: Leslie Ford's The Philadelphia Murder Story

Today, I'm revising Mapback Mondays! 

Dell Mapback Books were printed in the 1940s and 50s, and they were something really special! They were great paperbacks, not only for the books themselves, but for the sturdy laminated covers that also had maps of the scene of the crime on the back! How cool is that? 

For a history of Dell Mapbacks, read J. Kingston Pierce's Dell Mapbacks: a History in CrimeReads. 

So to begin Mapback Mondays, here's the cover and mapback from Leslie Ford's The Philadelphia Murder Story! I'm from Philadelphia originally, so I'm drawn to everything Philly! This Mapback features lots of my haunts--well maybe not the Police Station. And the mystery is a 'bibliomystery'. What's not to love?
