A very striking handsome example of this Fleming title in extremely scarce condition with the stunning dust jacket! Outstanding presentation on the shelf. The dust jacket is protected in a new clear removeable archival cover. The jacket is NOT price clipped and has the stated price of 10s 6d net to both the front and rear flaps. Very slight touch of toning to the rear panel with and one faint tape ghost to rear inside flap. The dust jacket has No edgewear, No chips, No rips, No tears, No stains, No fading and No foxing. The dust jacket has strong vibrant colors still maintaining the brilliant red to the hearts in the front panel and bright yellow titles to the spine (which more typically fade). The original dust jacket has benefited from some slight restoration to the very outer spine tips and as such presents in near fine condition. A handsome copy of this elusive first edition, third impression title. The internal pages are clean, with no stains, no handling marks, no writing, and no foxing. The end papers are bright and flat with one neat owner name, otherwise no inscriptions, no book plates, and no bookstore stamps. The boards are in clean, beautiful condition with sharp corners, and no edgewear with a slight bump to top edge. Original crisp black covered boards with bright unfaded red titles to the spine, and a red heart to the front. Very scarce title and a wonderful alternative to the first edition, first printing in a first state jacket which is priced at over $80,000 in the same condition as this book. This copy is a clean example with the original unclipped dust jacket having the same artwork as the first edition. Considered the RAREST CAPE PUBLISHING IMPRESSION, with less than 1,000 copies printed. First Edition, Third Printing: Fine/near fine crisp clean book with a beautiful original Fine/near fine original unclipped dust jacket.
