They Shoot Horses, Don't They? Horace McCoy, 1935 MCCOY, Horace (1897-1955). They Shoot Horses, Don't They? New York: Simon and Schuster, 1935. A fine copy of McCoy’s best-known novel. Like Raymond Chandler and Dashiell Hammett, he was a protégé of Black Mask editor Joe Shaw, though he resisted being pigeon-holed as “hard-boiled.” The grim Depression-era story of dance marathons and murders was made into a film of the same name in 1969 starring Jane Fonda and directed by Sydney Pollack Publisher's comment card loosely inserted. Octavo. Original cloth; dust jacket (very minor rubbing to extremities, hint of darkening to spine panel); custom box.
