The Memoirs of Solar Pons (Signed First Edition)

Descripción:

12mo., 245pp. Beautiful First Edition, the second of Derleth's collection of stories paying homage to Sherlock Holmes after "In Re: Sherlock Holmes". One of only 2038 copies printed. Square, tight and clean throughout with no toning or foxing. Tiny bump to top front edge and tips. Softness to spine ends. Pretty bookplate and small date in ink on front paste-down. Equally attractive unclipped Frank Utpatel designed dust-jacket, ($3.00), has a touch of wear to crown. Faint crease along the bottom rear edge but quite minor. Still fresh and bright with no chipping or tears and barely a hint of toning to the spine that is commonly found. Inscribed by the author on the front end-paper, "Canonically, August Derleth". A quite sharp collectable copy at a great price. (Jaffery p. 48). N° de ref. del artículo 016743
