Herscholt, Wolfe
Entry updated 5 April 2024. Tagged: Author, House name.
An Australian pseudonym or more likely a House Name used mainly by G C Bleeck and Russell Hausfeld on some unremarkable Scientific Thrillers titles, two of them of novella length. These are Magnetic Peril (1949 chap) and X-Ray Menace (1949 chap), both involving Inventions; in the first a new metal is used to magnetically attract ocean liners (see Magnetism), which are then looted, and in the second, an X-ray camera is used to make a film (see Cinema) that exposes the secret lives of Hollywood stars.
