First edition, first printing. Publisher's original brown cloth with silver titles to the spine, in the W. Stein illustrated dustwrapper. An excellent near fine copy, the binding square and firm, the cloth bright and fresh. The contents, with some toning to the closed text block edge are otherwise clean throughout and without inscriptions or stamps. Complete with the very good rubbed and nicked dustwrapper that has several short closed tears, some associated creasing and tiny chips to the spine tips and fold corners. Not price-clipped (9s 6d net to the front flap).
A decent example of what proves to be the scarcest of Kitchin's Malcolm Warren mysteries. (Hubin).
