Encyclopedia Brown

[Jaozza]

First time I've ever found a full treatment in an Encyclopedia Brown Book, let alone on the cover. I checked the story and the woman in question is a secretary that was tied up when her employer was kidnapped. This edition also has an illustration of her getting untied, gag already off, but I couldn't find a good link to that.

Great find! I used to read all of the Encyclopedia Brown books as a kid and I remember that cover! I don't recall the story, though.
