About This Item
London: Hodder and Stoughton. [1930]. First edition, first printing. First edition, first printing. Original yellow cloth with black titles to the front and spine, in fine dustwrapper. A near very good copy, the binding soiled and rubbed with a slight spine lean. The contents are entirely complete but spotted throughout and with a partially erased previous owner's signature to the front pastedown. With the supplied proof state dustwrapper which is in exceptional condition having been stored flat for the majority of its 85 year existence. The dustwrapper is identical in design to the regular first edition but without the publisher's price of 3/6 net to the upper panel, spine and flap corners and with slightly different type setting to the lettering at the top of both flaps (all titles listed remain the same). Rare in this state and truly exceptional condition. The third book featuring Simon Templar alias "The Saint". Further details and images for any of the items listed are available on request. Lucius Books welcomes direct contact with our customers.
