Man of Distinction

[Tasman]

Hi guys!
I’m writing because I’m looking for small help. I’m trying to find out short science fiction story “Man of Distinction” wrote by Fredric Brown. I know it only from Polish translation. I need English version because I made a short movie based on this story but I don’t have original to put English subtitles. I couldn’t find it at the internet and at my local library too.
Please if anybody can help me and send this funny short story to my e-mail box I will be very obliged. It helps me to finish my movie finally.

Unfortunately I can not leave my e-mail and link where "Man of Distinction" was published but you can take a look at The Internet Speculative Fiction Database site.

Thanks very much.

Bit of a tough one that as it is quite old. The only place I could find it was in a "complete" collection of short stories on Amazon. But being a complete collection it is, I'm guessing, fairly large and also fairly expensive. Here's the link for Amazon.co.uk though you may not be able to buy it from there if you are not UK based:

A comprehensive list of the story's appearances can be found here:

As Vertigo suggests, the Complete Short SF collection might be your best bet.

Good luck!
