Hardcover. Condición: Fair. No Jacket. Clearly not many hardcover first editions (not even stated "Second Impressions" like this one) of this first mystery by Kauffmann -- which won the 1956 Edgar Allan Poe Award for best mystery by a new writer -- were ever printed. Then we have the added problem of the Online bulk sellers (you know their names) who drive us crazy by consistently listing paperback reprints of this book (as well as similar reprints of the 1957 Edgar winner, Donald Douglass' "Rebecca's Pride") as "hardcover firsts." Taken together, these factors help explain why this volume -- an ex-library hardcover copy stamped to all page edges by The Free Library of Philadelphia, with manila card-holder glued to FRE, and not an expensive or impressive piece of book-making in the first place -- commands a substantial price. There are also removal marks to both pastedowns -- possibly where the (now missing) dust jacket was once glued down. (NO dust jacket present.) Franklin Lane Kauffmann (1922-1988), the grandson of Franklin K. Lane, a Secretary of the Interior under Woodrow Wilson, graduated from Choate and attended Princeton. He wrote under the pen name Lane Kauffmann and published nine books, eight of them novels. In addition to the 1964 best seller ''An Honorable Estate,'' his works included ''Another Helen,'' published in 1968, and ''A Lesser Lion,'' which was adapted for the stage. Edgar-winning mystery. 211 pp. Reduced from $90.

Then we have the added problem of the Online bulk sellers (you know their names) who drive us crazy by consistently listing paperback reprints of this book (as well as similar reprints of the 1957 winner, Donald Douglass' "Rebecca's Pride") as "hardcover firsts." Taken together, these factors help explain why this volume -- an ex-library hardcover copy stamped to all page edges by the Porter Library, Kansas State Teachers College, festooned with all the usual lending-library trappings, and not an expensive or impressive piece of book-making in the first place -- commands a moderately substantial price. Date due slip to RFE shows an extensive borrowing history from 1957 to 1997, "Withdrawn" stamp to blank FFE, and a bar code sticker to front board and white paper Dewey Decimal label to bottom of spine which in our opinion can NOT be easily removed without further defacing the book's appearance.
