Dead Reckoning with Tipped-in Jacket

THAYER, Lee [Emma Redington Thayer]

Published by Dodd, Mead & Company, New York, 1954

First edition. Jacket by "LT" - almost certainly the author. Binding slightly cocked and boards very slightly bowed, a couple of foxed spots and modest edgewear including a tiny tear at the bottom corner of the rear board, bright and very good or better. The publisher's file copy with a label on the rear pastedown and a bright example of the jacket folded and tipped-onto the front pastedown; the jacket has been slightly but unevenly trimmed along the top and bottom edges to fit inside the book. Thayer was an artist and cofounded Decorative Designers, a publisher s art service, with her husband (hence the jacket attribution). A book in thePeter Clancy Mysteryseries. A Red Badge detective novel, presumably unique in this state. Seller Inventory # 586409
