About This Item
The book shows minor wear for its age: shelf wear and a slightly bent corner of the book cover. A few spots of wear at various corners of the dust jacket, most significant of which is a 1 cm tear at the top rear corner of the spine, plus about 8 cm of tears over the spine. The formerly white dust jacket has a collection of darker rubs throughout. Pages clean, tight, intact. Thirteen stories of true detectives (see photo #2). Seems to be a very rare book.
