Stapled. Condition: Fair. No Jacket. Paul Hess (cover photo), Fred Ludekens (Point of Death), Roy Spreter (Beauty's Daughter), George Howe (The Closed Room), Rea Irvin (Fellow Citizens, I Love You), F G Cooper (Hero Poison), Tallburt (The Next Step in the New Deal) (illustrator). First Edition. The November 1934 issue of the American Magazine. It contains most notably, complete in this issue, Point of Death, an abridged version of Fer-de-Lance - the first Nero Wolfe novel. This precedes the book publication and can arguably be asserted to be the "true first edition" of the Nero Wolfe classic. I'll leave that judgment to the bibliographers & completists. Other articles and fiction include part 2 of 6 of Beauty's Daughter, a novel by Kathleen Norris, part 4 of 6 of The Closed Room, a novel by Clarence Budington Kelland, Fellow Citizens, I Love You, poetry by Ogden Nash, The Corn Planting, an article by Sherwood Anderson, Hero Poison, an article on egos and college football by Paul Gallico, The Next Step in the New Deal, an article by Walter Lippmann, Scattergood, an Interesting People feature of Thomas J Neary, Ruralist, an Interesting People feature of Sherwood Anderson, and others. There are a number of condition issues. The cover is intact but loose from the spine. Light soiling to the covers. Light wear at the top and bottom of the spine. Missing pages as follows - 41/42 (Interesting People - Fencing champs Marion Lloyd & Dorothy Locke, Angler Helen Jepson), 45/46 (Interesting People String Puller Thomas J Neary & Ruralist Sherwood Anderson), 79/80 (ads Campbell's Soup & Camel's) and 89/90 (Ford ad & Tigress in Gingham story by Virgina Paxton). The Stout story is not affected. A flawed copy with a hard to find cornerstone of golden age mystery fiction.

Stapled. Condition: Good. No Jacket.

Light edge wear to the front cover with small dark streaks along the spine and the less on the bottom edge. Small loss at the top & bottom of the spine. The spine is very dark, almost black, but still readable. Light damp stains to the for edge of the pages that fades out by page 20 and the top & bottom corners of the pages that fades out by page 84 at the top and 100 at the bottom. No cutouts or missing pages. A good or better copy of a hard to find example of a cornerstone of golden age mystery fiction.
