Title: Murder While You Work
Description: Book is Poor in no dust jacket. Burgundy Cloth binding, First Edition, Hodder & Stoughton, London, 1944. This book looks great on the outside, but unfortunately, what appears to be a severe accident in the printing press has left pages 77-100 damaged and pages 83-94 severely damaged. Significantly, there are no tears to the fore edge of the pages, but the inside text area is all scrunched up and severely torn on a half dozen or so leaves. There are even one or two scraps of paper lying loose inside. From what we can tell, most or all of the paper area is still present, and possibly a restorator could work wonders, but the attempt would be painstaking. A real shame, as this title is rarer than hens teeth. Size 12mo

Author: George Macdonald Fraser
Title: The General Danced at Dawn
Description: Book is Very Good in Near Fine dust jacket. Hardcover binding, First Edition, Barrie & Jenkins, London, 1970. Sound tight and clean copy from small circulating library, hence no stamps stickers or other library defects. Book is slightly corner rubbed, free of inscription with fingering on fore-edge only, no significant marks inside. Light water spray marks on top edge, no staining but the red inking of the edge is slightly mottled as a result. The wrapper is spectacularly clean, bright and unfaded, the spine titling being still brilliant red. There are only three minor quibbling patches where the glaze has delaminated. Unclipped, tight fitting, super-glossy having been protected since birth. The pvc sleeve is not ideal for future conservation so we have discarded it. Only real flaw is tape marks where the pvc sleeve was attached to the pastedowns. It has to be emphasised that the wrapper is in very pleasing condition, and nothing sets off a book quite so well as this. Size 8vo
