Description:
London: John Long, 1935. First Edition. Hard Cover. Dust Jacket. (London: John Long n.d. [1935]). First UK Edition, First Issue (with the Spring 1935 John Long Catalogue at the rear of the book). Foreword by Baroness Orczy. Publisher's plum-coloured cloth with gilt lettering to the spine. The book is integrally in fine condition, with a very strong unread feeling to the spine. The pages are clean and bright throughout. Very minor cocking to the book and some foxing to the outer text block. Page 279 has a crease at the top right hand corner. Overall the book is in near fine condition. The Spring 1935 Catalogue at the back is evidence of the first issue. The D/W is also in near fine condition with one very short tear and a touch of creasing at the very top of the spine. One reason the D/W seems to have survived so well is that it is of a thick high quality paper. The identity of "John Blakeney" has been the subject of speculation. Elsewhere on the www it is argued that John Blakeney is… Read More
