About this Item
Straight and solid hardcover in orange cloth covered boards with black spine title and a black cover illustration of Red Clark riding a galloping horse while shooting a gun with his right hand. 5/8" long scratch on frt board 1" up from lower edge hasn't broken the cloth. Not exlib. Book tips and spine ends bumped with cloth broken on lower frt board tip only. Top edge of 301 page block is dyed red. The text is crisp and clean without tears or names. There is a very light watermark on frt endpaper fore-edge, and a faint soil spot on rear endpaper. The only illustrations are a full page black line drawing on the title page plus three 1.5" square small vignettes on BOTH of the half title pages and head of the contents page. The un-clipped jacket ( un-priced by printer, but does show an ink stamped former price of 75c at frt flap tip) plus many other book offerings on varied topics printed on the backside of the dust wrapper as well as on the lightly soiled cream background rear panel. DJ shows five open chips none more than 1" long plus the lower quarter of the dj backstrip is missing. These issues aren't a major deal due to the new protective, removable, white paper-backed mylar sleeve the jacket is now in. The lower 5/8" of the white dj backstrip paper liner has been trimmed to display the publisher's name there and 1 1/2" of the white paper liner is above it to cover the part of the galloping horse on the book spine because the dj spine has a different picture and there would be galloping horse legs and hooves below the illust of Red Clark on the dj. The Sheriff of Tahzo needed a man for a particular job - a man to go into a bad men's town and get the murderer of a girl. When he jailed a wild, redheaded cowboy who was all liquored up and trying to take his horse to bed with him, the sheriff didn't dream that he had found his man. But Red Clark was just the man. This light-hearted, devil-may-care tale of his invasion of Lelargo is as fast a saga of gunfire as you will find. Seller Inventory # R46368
