The book retains its vintage illustrated dust jacket—an important feature despite its considerable wear.
This copy has evidence of previous institutional/private use, including a New England Lending Library stamp and previous-owner writing on the front endpaper.
Condition note: The dust jacket has significant age-related deterioration, including chips, tears, creasing, splitting and missing portions. The book itself also shows wear consistent with its age and use. It is being offered as shown, and the photographs should be considered an important part of the description.
An interesting survivor for collectors of Golden Age detective fiction, vintage mysteries, A. Fielding, Chief Inspector Pointer novels, and early 20th-century crime fiction.
