The following is a list of the Perry Mason novels and short stories by Erle Stanley Gardner, published from 1933 to 1973.

Many Perry Mason novels were first published in magazines, most often The Saturday Evening Post, some with different titles. Sixteen appeared in the Toronto Star Weekly in condensed form. All books were first published by William Morrow and Company, New York. Most were published simultaneously in Toronto.[1][2]

Six of the novels were adapted for a series of Perry Mason films produced in the 1930s. Many of the novels and short stories were adapted for the CBS television series Perry Mason (1957–1966); details are available at the list of episodes for the TV series.

The Perry Mason series ranks third in the top ten best selling book series, with sales of 300 million. R. L. Stine's Goosebumps series is ranked second, with over 400 million; J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter series is first, with over 500 million.[3][4]

[edit]

    In the first Perry Mason mystery, we meet Perry, Della Street and detective Paul Drake for the first time. District Attorney Hamilton Burger and Lieutenant Arthur Tragg do not appear in this story. There is no courtroom scene in the entire novel, which is routine in the later books. The plot revolves around a spoiled woman, who calls herself "Eva Griffin". She comes to Mason claiming that she is being blackmailed by her powerful husband. She wants to keep the news of her affairs secret from him and seeks help from Mason. Meanwhile, she is accused of murder and, in turn, puts the blame on Mason himself. But Perry avoids being double-crossed and fights to free her from the charges.
  2. The Case of the Sulky Girl (1933)
    William Morrow and Company, September 1933[5]: 324 
    A bratty heiress wants to keep the news of a man in her life a secret from the guardian who controls her purse strings. Then, when there is a murder, that same man is accused.

    William Morrow and Company, February 1934[5]: 324

    Serialized in Liberty Magazine, January 13 – March 17, 1934; William Morrow and Company, June 1934[5]: 324 
    When a potential client wants to see Mason about a howling dog and a will, the attorney is uninterested. He does not enjoy drafting wills, and wonders if the man should not see a veterinarian. However, the man's next question, whether a will is legal if the person who made it had been executed for murder, immediately piques Mason's interest. He finds, in addition to the will and the dog, a man who had run away with the wife of another, and a sexy housekeeper.[6] The Hollywood movie of this name is considered the best big screen adaptation of a Perry Mason book.

    William Morrow and Company, April 1935[5]: 324 
    Peter Brunold has a bloodshot glass eye to use the "morning after." It is distinctive, closely identified with him, and thus a handicap when a corpse is found clutching a bloodshot glass eye. Later, another corpse is found, with another bloodshot glass eye in hand. But Mason is in almost as much jeopardy as his client, as his fingerprints have been found on one of the alleged murder weapons.[6] This is the first novel in which District Attorney Hamilton Burger appears.
  7. The Case of the Caretaker's Cat (1935)

    Mason defends an elderly woman who claims to have no memory of shooting a man, but he needs to know why she would go shoplifting when she has plenty of money in her purse.
  14. The Case of the Perjured Parrot (1939)
    William Morrow and Company, February 1939[5]: 326 
    One of Perry Mason's trademarks is his ability, in court, to switch the physical evidence in a case. He generally does this with guns or bullets, and it confuses the jury, to his client's advantage. In this case, Perry offers a coroner's inquest two parrots, one of which swore like a muleskinner and was found near the body of a millionaire hermit who had been murdered.[6]
    Jacques Barzun and Wendell Hertig Taylor, A Catalogue of Crime: "This early Perry Mason is uncommonly full of detection, and the games played in it with parrots do not detract from plausibility. Denouement not huddled—all in all, a model in his special genre."[7]
  15. The Case of the Rolling Bones (1939)
    William Morrow and Company, November 1939[5]: 326

Mason must reacquire some stock and defend the businesswoman. This novel is the first to feature Lt. Arthur Tragg, who was introduced as a replacement for Sgt. Holcomb. Gardner felt that Tragg, though plenty tough and smart, had a smoother approach than the rough-and-ready Holcomb character, and gave the police a better image. Holcomb would continue to appear sometimes as a secondary character, though.
  3. The Case of the Haunted Husband (1941)
    William Morrow and Company, February 1941[5]: 327

    William Morrow and Company, September 1943[5]: 328 
    A wealthy prospector is camping in his own back yard, someone tries to poison Perry and Della, Paul Drake poses as a drunken prospector, and the clue to the murder is the sound of a mosquito flying in lazy circles.

    William Morrow and Company, May 1944[5]: 328

    Jacques Barzun and Wendell Hertig Taylor, A Catalogue of Crime: "The details of the boat grounded at low tide with a corpse in the cabin are superbly handled, and the rest of the story—motives and characters—is both believable and reasonably straightforward; … It is an absolutely first-rate job."[7]

    A man picks up an innocent young hitchhiker and gets into even more trouble when his partner is found murdered.
    Jacques Barzun and Wendell Hertig Taylor, A Catalogue of Crime: "Despite the fact that compelling evidence of virginity is not offered, the lady vagabond is well done, and the plot is better-than-average Gardner; indeed, it is surprisingly good when one considers the deluge that had already gone over the dam by 1948."[7]
  18. The Case of the Dubious Bridegroom (1949)
    William Morrow and Company, February 1949[5]: 330

Morrow issued a later hardcover edition marked "Book Club Edition" in a taller format which included two Mason short stories: The Case of the Crying Swallow and The Case of the Crimson Kiss. This later edition has a jacket that includes a blurb for the two included stories, while the true first edition jacket does not.

Pastiche

[edit]

After Gardner's death, Thomas Chastain wrote two Perry Mason novels licensed by the author's estate, "based on characters created by Erle Stanley Gardner". Both follow the made-for-TV movies in the use of Paul Drake, Jr.

  1. Perry Mason in The Case of Too Many Murders (1989) – A businessman seems to have been in two places at once—once as a murderer, once as a victim.
  2. Perry Mason in The Case of the Burning Bequest (1990) – Mason's client has apparently killed his mother-in-law-to-be in the same room where his fiancée's real mother was killed by the client's father. The case is complicated further by the client's refusal to exonerate himself.

The Perry Mason series debuted in 1933 with The Case of the Velvet Claws, marking Erle Stanley Gardner's introduction of the titular criminal defense attorney as a hard-boiled, resourceful figure navigating complex legal and criminal intrigues.

While Gardner's earlier short stories had appeared in like Black Mask, the novels were primarily book originals during this decade, though some later entries saw in periodicals such as Liberty magazine.

Posthumous Publications

Following Erle Stanley Gardner's death on March 11, 1970, two complete manuscripts were discovered among his personal files, ready for publication without significant editing. These works, found in his pending file, represented the final authentic contributions from the author to the series, confirming their authenticity through direct examination of the original typescripts. Publishers Morrow proceeded with their release, preserving Gardner's signature style of intricate legal puzzles and moral dilemmas. The first posthumous novel, The Case of the Fenced-In Woman, was published in September 1972 by William Morrow. In this story, takes on the defense of Morley Eden, whose newly purchased desert home is bizarrely bisected by a barbed-wire fence erected by a contentious divorcee claiming partial ownership. The plot escalates when contractor Loring Carson is murdered with a , drawing in suspects like the enigmatic Nadine Palmer and revelations about hidden securities and a . True to classic Mason elements, the narrative builds to a tense confrontation where Mason's sharp deductions and cross-examinations unravel a web of deceit, exonerating his clients while highlighting themes of property rights and deception. The second and final posthumous entry, The Case of the Postponed Murder, appeared in 1973, also from William Morrow. Here, Mason investigates the shooting death of playboy Penn Wentworth aboard his yacht, with secretary Mae Farr as the after receiving threatening notes.

Short Stories

Original Magazine Appearances

, best known for his extensive novel series, also authored four original short stories featuring the character, all initially published in popular magazines during the late and early . These works adapted the lawyer's investigative style to shorter formats, emphasizing tight legal puzzles and dramatic courtroom confrontations within condensed narratives, often illustrated by prominent artists of the era. Unlike the full-length novels, these stories were crafted for periodical audiences, highlighting Perry Mason's quick thinking and moral acuity in resolving mysteries involving murder accusations and hidden motives. The stories' magazine origins contributed to their relative rarity, as original issues are collectible items seldom reprinted individually before later anthologies, making them prized by fans for capturing Gardner's pulp-influenced in episodic form. One notable example is the radio story, which tied directly into the contemporary broadcasts, blending print and audio media to expand the character's reach. The four original Perry Mason short stories and their publication details are as follows:
TitlePublication DateMagazineIssue Details
The Case of the Crying SwallowAugust 1947Illustrated by Robert Stanley Douglass; a novelette involving a suspicious death and a jeweled figurine as key evidence.
The Case of the Crimson KissJune 1948Focuses on a lipstick-marked clue in a poisoning case; cover-featured with artwork by Barbara Schwinn.
The Case of the Suspect SweetheartsMay 1950Radio and Television MirrorPublished under the pseudonym ; a radio show story exploring romance and discrepancies among young lovers.
The Case of the Irate WitnessJanuary 17, 1953Centers on a hostile witness's unraveling a frame-up; Gardner's final original Mason short story.

Collected Editions

The collected editions of Perry Mason short stories were assembled and published posthumously after Erle Stanley Gardner's death in 1970, serving to compile and preserve his limited output of short fiction in a bibliography overwhelmingly focused on novels. These volumes typically paired each short story—originally published in magazines—with other mystery tales written by Gardner under pseudonyms such as A.A. Fair and Carleton Kendrake, highlighting the rarity of his Perry Mason shorts amid his prolific novel production. By bringing these works into book form, the collections made them more accessible to readers and collectors, countering the dominance of the novel series that defined Gardner's career. The inaugural posthumous collection, The Case of the Crimson Kiss and Other Stories, was issued in 1971 by in New York. It features the novelette "The Case of the Crimson Kiss" as its centerpiece, alongside non-Perry Mason stories including "Fingers of Fong," "The Valley of Little Fears," "Crooked Lightning," and others. Likewise, The Case of the Crying Swallow and Other Stories was published in 1971 by , centering on the title story "The Case of the Crying Swallow" while incorporating additional short mysteries by Gardner. This volume, like its counterpart, underscores the posthumous effort to curate and republish his magazine-era shorts. The remaining two Perry Mason short stories, "The Case of the Suspect Sweethearts" and "The Case of the Irate Witness," appeared together in The Case of the Irate Witness and Other Stories, published in 1972 by William Morrow, featuring these stories alongside supporting mystery tales by Gardner, often centered on themes like stolen jewels and legal intrigue. These three editions represent the complete scope of Gardner's authentic Perry Mason short fiction in bound form, limited to just these four pieces compiled posthumously.

Pastiche Works

Authorized Novels by Thomas Chastain

Thomas Chastain, an American mystery writer, was commissioned by the estate of to continue the series with two authorized novels in the late 1980s. These works were the first novels written by an author other than Gardner published after his death in 1970, maintaining continuity with the original characters while incorporating elements from the 1980s television movies starring , such as the introduction of Paul Drake Jr. as the primary detective following the retirement of his father, Paul Drake Sr. The first novel, in the Case of Too Many Murders, was published in 1989 by . In this story, set in , businessman Gil Adrian shoots his dinner companion in a crowded and flees, only to be murdered himself minutes later. His estranged wife, the , hires Perry Mason to prove her innocence, leading to a complex investigation involving multiple suspects and apparent murders. Assisted by his faithful secretary and Paul Drake Jr., Mason navigates courtroom drama and uncovers a web of deceit tied to corporate intrigue, preserving the series' hallmark legal twists and ethical dilemmas. The second and final authorized novel, Perry Mason in the Case of the Burning Bequest, appeared in 1990, also from . Here, John Leland discovers the charred body of his fiancée Anne's stepmother in a house fire, positioning him as the in her murder due to a suspicious clause in the family will. Mason defends Leland, probing a decades-old connection to the room where Anne's mother had been murdered twenty years prior by Leland's own father, revealing hidden motives among heirs and business associates. With Della Street's support and Paul Drake Jr.'s investigative prowess, the narrative emphasizes Mason's deductive brilliance and commitment to justice, culminating in a trial that exposes the true perpetrator.

Other Derivative Publications

Beyond the authorized continuations by Thomas Chastain, which represent the primary official extensions of the series, derivative works featuring the character in unofficial capacities remain notably scarce, largely confined to early adaptations and satirical treatments rather than expansive pastiches. One prominent example of a peripheral adaptation is the newspaper comic strip, syndicated by King Features from October 16, 1950, to June 21, 1952, spanning eight story arcs and illustrated by Charles Lofgren, with possible writing contributions from himself. This short-lived strip adapted elements of the character's courtroom dramas into a visual format but did not achieve widespread longevity or lead to collected editions, distinguishing it from the core novel and short story canon. Similarly, produced limited comic book adaptations in the 1940s, including the 1946 Feature Book, which retooled Gardner's third novel, The Case of the Curious Bride, into a graphic narrative, though only a handful of such issues appeared before the format faded. Radio tie-ins further exemplify minor derivatives not formalized into books, with the Perry Mason radio series airing from 1943 to 1955 across multiple networks, delivering approximately 3000 fifteen-minute episodes—many featuring original plots devised for the medium rather than direct lifts from Gardner's prose. These scripts, often starring John Larkin as Mason, emphasized serialized suspense and courtroom theatrics but remained ephemeral broadcasts, uncompiled into print anthologies due to their broadcast-exclusive nature. Unofficial pastiches and parodies are even more limited, with published examples primarily satirical rather than reverent extensions; a key instance is the 1959 Mad Magazine spoof "The Night That Perry Masonmint Lost a Case" in issue #48, illustrated by , which lampooned the character's infallible legal prowess through exaggerated absurdity. While modern proliferates online—platforms like host over 900 stories—these remain unofficial, non-commercial works without formal anthologies, underscoring the dominance of estate-sanctioned materials. This scarcity stems from stringent copyright oversight by the estate, managed post-1970 by his widow Jean Gardner until her 2002 death, which rigorously limited unauthorized derivatives to protect the franchise's integrity and commercial value. Following the Chastain novels, no further official pastiches emerged, as estate controls—bolstered by U.S. copyright extensions—effectively curtailed new works, channeling creative output into licensed media like television reboots rather than literary expansions.
