First Edition (issue with ad for Smoke of the .45 at top of rear panel). G. W. Gage dustjacket art and frontispiece. Translated into English from the French by Alexader Teixeira de Mattos. A Haycraft-Queen Cornerstone and Queen's Quorum 69. 'A reformed criminal, Arsene Lupin, now masquerading as a millionaire prince, has taken up a new life as a sort of fixer, solving crimes instead of committing them. In the first of the eight adventures here he meets a young woman who is desperate to change her life: he invites her to join him in his exploits, no strings attached, for one year. She agrees, although with some reservations, and Hortense and the Prince work their way through seven more cases together.' Near Fine, old 50 cent price in ink at front endpaper, in Very Good dustjacket, some modest signs of use, two small chips at top spine end, couple short closed tears, lower rear panel with quarter sized chip.
