Hairbreadth Harry
by F. O. Alexander
About midway (29 Nov 1936) through Franklin Osborne Alexander’s run with Charles
Kahles’s character Hairbreadth Harry, the adventurer and his lady friend Belinda found
themselves taken to the year 4936 by a magic hourglass where they are up against their
arch-nemesis Relentless Rudolph Ruddigore Rassendale. I don’t know whether the
characters and their hour glass had any other adventures in time.
Harry! A mouse is in the trap and I haven’t the nerve to—OH!—you’ve knocked over
the magic hour glass. . .!
