About This Item
London: Cape, 1937. First Edition. Hard Cover. Dust Jacket. First UK Edition. Original orange cloth, illustration to front cover and titles to spine in black. A small booksellers ticket on the front paste-down otherwise a VG+ copy in a D/W (priced 7/6 net to the inside flap, as called for) which would be fine except for a small inscription on the inside flap. Contributors include Robert Herring, Don Herold, John Marks, Meyer Levin, Alistair Cooke, Robert Forsythe, Graham Greene, Otis Ferguson and Cecelia Ager. This book is often mis-catalogued as Watchman rather than the correct Watchmen
