Untitled[edit]

I just received an e-mail advertisement for a casino site, which included the quote, <<"Half the work that is done in the world is to make things appear what they are not." Erastus Flavel Beadle>>. this led me to investigate whether there acutally existed such a character and, if so, what the significance of the quote might be. Unfortunately, the trail ends as far as Wikipedia is concerned. Further investigation on some other site may bear fruit.

Pulp fiction[edit]

The lead paragraph here asserts he's a pioneer in publishing pulp fiction, but the article text only describes him working generally in publishing. Could someone (presumably Richard Arthur Norton) expand out the middle section to support the "pulp fiction" claims in the lead paragraph? That would also help defend against claims that the article does not credibly assert the importance of the individual. Thanks! - DustFormsWords (talk) 07:01, 19 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
