If I Should Die Before I Wake

Irish, William (Pseudonym of Cornell Woolrich)

Published by Avon, New York, 1946

Vintage Paperback PBO Avon #104 Sharp First Printing of this Mass Market Paperback Edition. Originally published the previous year in Avon Murder Mystery Monthly#31. Anthology of six stories. (Hubin p.21; Lovisi, p.105) Square, tight, and clean throughout with very mild page toning. Some mild wear to spine ends and a faint, barely noticeable dog-ear on the bottom front corner. Binding defect has on a couple of gatherings protruding about 1mm beyond the fore-edge. "P" in ink on the top edge, likely a distributor marking. Quite fresh and bright and is much nicer than it sounds with no chipping or tears. A very attractive collectable copy and far scarcer than the digest edition. Seller Inventory # 016353
