London, United Kingdom: Hodder and Stoughton, 1958. A fantastic frontispiece by Stead of a cool looking 'King Hara' whoever he is. One suspects he might be a baddie from within the plot hence the suspicious looking sunglasses ! This is a nice copy. Previous owners name wriiten neatly to front pastedown. This is discreet as it is mostly obscured by the dustwrapper flap. Small ticks to some of the titles also done very neatly and discreetly. The book does not have any real evidence of foxing and the pages remain fresh and tightly bound. Binding in excellent condition with no bumping of the corners which remain sharp. Housed in the typically dramatic dustwrapper which has not been priceclipped. Overall signs of light wear and handling commensurate with age. Lightly rubbed to the edges with small tears to the vulnerable spine corners. A rather delicate dustwrapper by nature this one is wholly intact and maintains a nice shelf appearance. Dustwrapper protected in a removable archival booksleeve to preserve its condition. Becoming scarce in the surviving dustwrapper.. First Edition. Very Good/Good +. Illus. by Stead. FIRST EDITION.
