About This Item
New York: Bantam Books, 1994. This delightful murder mystery by Rita Mae Brown (with help from her cat, Sneaky Pie) is in Fine condition with a close to Fine, unclipped dust jacket. This Frist Edition was published in December 1994 and has the required "number line" that ends with a "1" to indicate First Printing. The book is bound in gray boards with a red cloth spine and die-stamped silver spine titles. The dust jacket has a small closed tear, some light shelf rubbing and several small creases. I've placed the dust jacket into a Brodart protective sleeve. A nice collector's copy for Rita Mae Brown and Sneaky Pie Brown admirers. . First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Near Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
