About This Item
London: Collins Crime Club, 1955. First edition, first printing. This is a very good (or better) copy. The dust wrapper, plainly designed by Farnhill, is sunned at the spine, though not to remarkable extents. The white lettering of 'Collins' remains bright and readable. It has been neatly price clipped. The boards are free from notable chips and marks and are fine in the original publisher's cloth. The text blocks are slightly foxed at each edge, though otherwise white. This copy is free from inscriptions and is, overall, in very good (or better) condition.
