About This Item

London: Collins, The Crime Club. 1958. First edition, first printing. First edition, first printing. Red cloth with black lettering to the spine, in dustwrapper. A very good copy, tight and square with some toning to the page block; no other marks or inscriptions. The very good dustwrapper shows some minor rubbing and a few nicks. There's a half-centimetre tear/patch of loss to the top of front panel which has been repaired with tape, and a one inch tear to the bottom of the back panel that is marked by the residual signs of earlier tape repair. Not price-clipped; correctly priced (10s 6d net) to the inner flap (there's a barely visible abrasion just above the printed price). The second Inspector Crambo mystery. Published as 'The Pipe Dream' in the United States. Further details and images for any of the items listed are available on request. Lucius Books welcomes direct contact with our customers.
