First edition, first printing. Original red cloth with black titles to the spine and upper board, in the Max Glick illustrated dustwrapper. A very near fine copy, the binding square and firm, the spine tips and board corners very slightly bumped. The contents are clean throughout and without inscriptions or stamps. Complete with the very good original dustwrapper that has a few short closed tears and small chips at the edges which have been skilfully repaired and restored with rice paper to the underside, giving the appearance of a fine copy. Not price-clipped ($2.00 to the upper front flap).
A Nero Wolfe double containing two novellas, 'Not Quite Dead Enough' and 'Booby Trap'. Published in September 1944, there was no UK equivalent publication.
