By Craig Rice. The "Complete and Unabridged" compendium from Rice, best known in her time as the "Dorothy Parker of mystery" but who worked also as a crime reporter.
No jacket on this hardcover, but it's a stated first printing. Rubbing/wear to the corners and edges of the boards, as shown; page toning, albeit somewhat milder than expected. Bump across the top front cover and along the page edges, as shown, plus some previous-owner stamps and writing on the flyleaf, where there's some foxing. Clean inside, though, and a sturdy reading copy of a relative rarity.
