About This Item
The Viking Press, 1958. First. Orange and black cloth. Near fine/Near fine. First printing, near fine hardcover shows a tiny faint stain at hinge area of reverse of rear endpaper and half title opposite and with some other very light trace wear, else tight and clean, in near fine dust jacket (price at flap) that shows a light bit of rubbing and edgewear. 254 pages. Still a good looking copy of this well received novel that was turned into a movie of the same name with the author writing the screenplay as well.
