About This Item
London: Cassell, 1937. First Edition. Hard Cover. Dust Jacket. Colonial Edition. Publisher's black boards with mauve spine lettering. A near fine copy in a D/W that is VG indeed with a few minor, insignificant chips to the cream portion of the spine (in the top 1/3rd or so) just affecting the final letter of the author's surname. A nice copy of an uncommon title. Scans invited. This copy looks much nicer than it sounds. Chesterton's final collection of detective stories (published after his death in 1936). Of the eight mysteries, seven were first printed in the Storyteller magazine.
