Hollywood: Pal Shoaf, 1948. Cloth. Very Good +/Very Good. The 1948 1st edition of this gritty boxing novel. Tight and VG+ (very light rubbing to the front panel and spine) in a bright, VG dustjacket, with light chipping at the tips, very light creasing along the edges and one 2" closed tear at the lower front flap-fold. Still though, very presentable.
