Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Original book club edition. An omnibus edition containing three complete mystery novels - "The Case of the Buried Clock" by Erle Stanley Gardner, a classic Perry Mason novel; "Headlong for Murder" by Madeleine McCoy (under the Merlda Mace pseudonym) is the first novel featuring Christine Anderson, a young blonde Scandinavian from Minnesota, struggling to get by in New York City who isn't going to let anything get in the way of a promised vacation on the Connecticut coast; and "To Catch a Thief" by Craig Rice (under the Daphne Sanders pseudonym), the story of a man who turns to robbery to right the wrongs done by several wealthy stock market manipulators during the Depression. This is considered one of her best novels and is also among the most difficult to find. One of the pleasures of these omnibus volumes, which combine three very different works in one book, is the opportunity they create of discovering authors or novels which might be unknown to you. Published in compliance with the conservation orders of the War Compliance Board, it is surprising that the pages appear to be acid free, and are still white and supple, unlike many wartime books. 622 pp. Very good+ in tan cloth in a very good dust jacket (bookplate on front pastedown, some discoloration from the binding process on endpapers, a faint "old book" musty odor in a dustjacket with a few chips, some toning to the spine). These vintage book club editions are becoming hard-to-find in dustjacket.…

Shopbeschreibung

Bookfever.com - the name used by Volk and Iiams, Booksellers- specializes in first editions of twentieth century literature, with an emphasis on women authors, African American, Native American and Latin American authors - plus mystery & detective fiction, science fiction & fantasy, poetry and children's & illustrated books. We try to offer many uncommon books, and have a large selection of first books, and books by authors who are less frequently collected. Of the approximately 60,000 volumes in stock, the majority are hardcover first editions, although we also stock vintage science fiction paperbacks as well as sf digests and pulps. We also have a large selection of books signed by the author and uncorrected proof copies. Only about 50% of our stock is catalogued, so please inquire if you are searching for specific titles. We have been selling books by mail order and on the internet since 1993. We have a large booth dedicated to books (called Books Upstairs) at the Antiques Upstairs Mall, 5 Main Street, Jackson, CA. (open every day from 10-5) The emphasis there is on Western Americana, children¿s books and inexpensive reading copies. In 1998 we relocated our main business from Sacramento to the Sierra foothills of Amador County, about 35 miles east of downtown Sacramento and between Ione & Sutter Creek. There, on 10 acres of rolling oak-covered hills, we built a "bookhouse" for our books.
