FIRST EDITION IN ORIGINAL DUSTWRAPPER 1932. Published by Harrap. Hardback. Very Good clean book with no marks or inscriptions. The yellow boards are bright and unfaded with no markings. There are a couple of small dents in the spine. The original rare dustwrapper is not price-clipped. There is minimal loss on the spine ends and corners but overall a lovely bright dustwrapper with a dramatic picture of a young woman hanging by the neck. Rare book - at the time of listing there was no other copy available for sale in the world.
