My Fu Manchu Book Collection. (So Far)

[Prof. Dinglebat. Phd.]

Some 1st editions. All bought on EBay over time.

Neat stuff, I especially like the Egypt and Bride covers!

For those of us who haven't got first editions, a lot of the Sax Rohmer stories are old enough to be out of copyright and are up on the Internet Archive, and they're in various free ebook collections from there, too.

Good stuff, although of course terribly racist in parts by modern standards. Fu Manchu is clearly the cleverest character in the stories, though.

Yes agreed. Racism and Fu are still very much alive today.

Lovely art design on the Brides cover.

Ohh! Nice relics Diglebat!

Well the "yellow menace" it's a usual subject on pulp novels, but I would say it's precisely Fu Manchu a twist on the subject, more than a racist topic I see him more like an agent of revenge for the abuses of the colonialist countries in asia.
A bit in the spirit of Capt Nemo.
But this is only a personal opinion, of course.
