Le Carré Omnibus comprising Call for the Dead and Murder of Quality

Le Carré, John

Verlag: Gollancz, London, 1964

Beschreibung

First UK Edition. SIGNED COPY. Publisher's red boards with gilt spine lettering. A near fine bright copy (gold spine lettering a bit dulled) in a price-clipped dustwrapper with a tiny ink spot to the right-hand edge of the front flap. The dustwrapper does not have the "X 25" to the rear panel but is otherwise identical to the first impression wrapper in every respect. The dustwrapper has NO TONING, NO DARKENING and is a SUPERIOR EXAMPLE of a FRAGILE DUST WRAPPER and needless to say, NO RESTORATION. A very nice copy indeed. A book-plate signed by the Author has been glued to the front free end-paper. This is the Author's fourth book which is a re-issue of his first two books neither of which had sold particularly well in their original first editions. With the success of "The Spy who Came in from the Cold" the publisher (Gollancz) wanted to capitalise on the huge success and issued this Omnibus edition. Nothing like as scarce as "Call for the Dead" or "A Murder of Quality" but still an uncommon book. Photographs/scans available upon request.
