I first heard of it in Ben Hecht's memoir and, thinking it might be just journalistic mythological lore, sought to confirm it. There is a December column in the Chicago Tribune by Burton Rascoe mentioning it and this same author mentions it again in his own memoir. The Chicago Herald and Recorder isn't anywhere digitised but the Chicago historical Society has a microfilm of the 1919 print run. #Chicago #microfilm #ChicagoHistory #VicenteBlascoIbanez #BlascoIbanez #Literature
