CORPSE IN CANONICALS

First edition, first printing. Publisher's original orange cloth with black titles to the upper board and spine, without the rare dustwrapper. An excellent near fine copy, the binding square and firm with a little bumping at the spine tips, the cloth bright and fresh. The contents, with a small ink inscription on the front endpaper are otherwise clean throughout.

An early mystery from the husband and wife team George and Margaret Cole, published in the inaugural year of the Collins' now legendary 'The Crime Club'. (Hubin; Curran, John: The Hooded Gunman).
