Description:
London: Thornton Butterworth, 1935. First Edition. Hard Cover. Dust Jacket. First UK Edition. Original aquamarine-green boards with publishers logo blind-stamped to the bottom right hand corner of the front board. Black lettering to the spine and front board. Slight fading to the spine (caused by ghosting through the D/W), a booksellers ticket on the front paste-down and a front hinge that is starting to weaken. Overall a VG copy. In the VERY RARE D/W priced 7s 6d net to the inside flap (as called for). The D/W has a chip to the top right hand corner of the spine just affecting the lettering and another small chip from the bottom right hand corner of the rear panel. Notoriously scarce, either with or without a D/W, this is one of Elinor Brent-Dyers scarcest books. NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH THE 1950S REPRINT OR 2006 PAPERBACK RE-ISSUE

The boards are in very good condition though the colour is a little mottled to the spine (due to colour transfer onto the inside of the D/W). The book is in VG+ condition with some light soiling marks to the prelims otherwise the pages are very clean with only occasional spots throughout. The edges of the front paste-down have some pink staining from the red cloth that has bled through.

The publisher's original D/W, which has no loss at all, is un-clipped showing the original price of 2/- net to the inside flap.

London: Collins Crime Club, 1938. First Edition. Hard Cover. Dust Jacket. (London: Published for THE CRIME CLUB by Collins 1938). First UK Edition. Publisher's orange boards with black lettering to the spine. Foxing to the page block edges which has crept into the text in places otherwise a VG++ copy with really bright and clean boards/ The first issue dustwrapper has been price-clipped by the publisher and re-priced at 4/-. This is NOT the cheap edition of this title which was published at 3/6 in November 1939 (according to the English Catalogue of Books for that year). I suspect that this copy may be from un-sold stock sold after WW2 simply price-clipped and reduced in price to 4/-. Great cover art. Photographs/scans available upon request.

London: Collins Crime Club, 1936. First Edition. Hard Cover. Dust Jacket. First UK Edition. Foxing to the page block edges and the early/late pages of the book otherwise a bright and clean VG+ copy in a D/W that is VG indeed and priced 7/6 net to the inside flap (as called for). The D/W has a little minor edge wear and has a couple of un-necessary tape repairs to the verso. To improve the appearance of this book some paper of a similar colour and age has been laid into the D/W protector to mask the minor chipping to the extremities. Uncommon. Looks nicer than it sounds. Scans invited.
