First edition, first printing. Signed by the author, Fritz Leiber. Original black cloth with gilt titles to the spine and upper board, in dustwrapper. A very good copy, the binding square and firm, the spine tips slightly bumped and the bottom corner of the upper board with a tiny spot of wear. The contents are clean throughout and without previous owners' stamps or inscriptions. Complete with the rubbed, nicked and creased original dustwrapper that has two chips to the top edge of the front panel (not affecting the title), slight fading to the spine and a closed tear to the bottom of the rear flap fold. There are two small pieces of tape to the underside. Not price-clipped ($3.95 on the front flap).
Signed by Fritz Leiber in black ink on the title page of 'Conjure Wife'. Three novels on the theme of witchcraft issued together in one volume. 'Conjure Wife' and 'There Shall Be No Darkness', having been first published in 'Unknown Worlds' and 'Thrilling Wonder Stories' magazines, are published here for the first time in book form, while 'The Blue Star' is published here for the first time. Each novel was later published separately.
