About This Item
A lovely first printing of the first American edition [Marek New York (1980)], signed by author Robert Ludlum directly on the front free end paper. The book is in very good condition with some wear on the board edges and bowing in the boards. The book has no remainder marks, a tight and square binding, sharp corners and with no owner inscriptions or highlighting. The dust jacket is in near fine condition, price-clipped, but with the correct date code (8003). The jacket has minimal shelf wear at the extremities of the spine but no chips or tears. The jacket presents very nicely in its protective archival cover, which is easily removable. Please do not hesitate to contact us for further information.
