Talk:Blandings Castle and Elsewhere

first published 1935?

I have in front of me a copy of Blandings Castle published by Herbert Jenkins whose colophon states "First Published by/ Herbert Jenkins Limited,/ 3 Duke of York Street,/ London, S.W.1/1922" (and underneath that "First published in the Autograph Edition/1957"). (The article currently states that the first publication date was 12 April 1935.)

I will attempt to upload a scan of this to Wikimedia Commons.

I'm not an expert on Wodehouse publication dates but I do notice that many sources state that BC&E was first published in 1935. --TyrS 01:51, 5 May 2015 (UTC)

After looking at the copyright regulations, I don't think I can upload scans of this book, as Wodehouse died in 1970.--TyrS 02:46, 5 May 2015 (UTC)

Merger proposal

I propose merging Mr Potter Takes a Rest Cure, Monkey Business, The Rise of Minna Nordstrom, and The Castaways to this article. The five Hollywood Mulliner stories in this collection seem to be notable more as a group than individually, and "Mr Potter Takes a Rest Cure" is not a main series story or particularly notable.

I have merged the four short story articles to this page. Miles26 (talk) 01:08, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
