Fleming, Joan - Death of a Sardine

A UK first edition, first impression.

Wrapper : The wrapper on this copy is bright, unfaded and complete. It is unclipped. It shows a touch of rubbing to the spine ends and a small closed tear running up from the bottom edge of the front panel. The white back panel is lightly soiled at the edges. Looks sharp.

Book : The book is square and very tight. There are no previous ownership inscriptions. The boards are clean and unfaded, the corners sharp. There is a touch of trivial bruising at the spine ends. The pages are clean. The closed page edges are unmarked. The binding is tight - no cracked hinges. No remainder marks. A very nice copy in a protected wrapper.
