Meredith, Anne - Portrait of a Murderer

A UK SECOND impression - first published in 1933. Unusual in its jacket. The publisher's File Copy with FILE COPY printed on the front panel of the wrapper and the front pastedown in the book. Unique thus.

WRAPPER : The wrapper on this copy is bright, complete and unclipped. The front and back panels show gentle wear to the edges. The spine is gently sunned and is gently rubbed and scuffed at the top and the bottom. Looks sharp in protective plastic.

BOOK : The book is tight. The red boards are clean and are unfaded. The corners are sharp. The spine ends are bruised. The text block is clean - it is toning and there is some foxing to the opening and closing few pages. The closed page edges are toned and lightly flecked. There are no loose or dog-eared pages. The binding is tight, the hinges are solid. There are no previous ownership inscriptions. A very nice copy in a protected wrapper.

Publisher: Gollancz, 1934
