About This Item

Los Angeles, CA: Griffin Publishing, 1949. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Near Fine. 12mo., 134pp. Sharp First Edition bound in green cloth with tiles in black on spine. Anthology edited anonymously by William L. Crawford with stories by Basil Wells and Paul Lavond, in additional to the Pragnell's novella. Square, tight and clean throughout with some very minor wear to the spine ends. Title page starting to pull at the top and a bit fragile but still firmly attached. Very attractive unclipped dust-jacket, ($1.50), has a tiny nick on the top edge and toning to the top edge. Still fresh and bright with no creases or tears. A very pretty collectable copy.
