First Edition Signed
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition. Dated April 1960 and inscribed "for Irene" in a second line beneath the signature "Nevil Shute Norway" (author's full name) in the author's distinctive hand in his typical blue ink to the title page. PLEASE READ FURTHER RE. THAT DATE. Irene Coleman's bookplate to blank FFE, where she has also signed her name and dated Oct. 2, 1944. Nevil Shute Norway, an aeronautical engineer who developed the hydraulic retractable landing gear and is best remembered as the author of the nuclear apocalypse novel "On The Beach" (1957), died of a stroke in Melbourne, Australia (where he had relocated his family from Britain to escape the socialists in 1950) at age 60 on Jan. 12, 1960, making the "April 1960" date in the second line of this inscription downright curious. Inscription appears uniform as to ink and approximate age. It's POSSIBLE recipient added the date, though the purpose would be unclear. (Please see scan.) The Texas bookseller from whom we received this book reports "It originally came from an estate sale in New Orleans, post Hurricane Katrina, and had been in possession of a woman by the name of Hettie Calhoun Simpson. She was a former Viking Press employee as both a proofreader and a junior editor before retirement," and apparently a book collector of some note. An Irene Coleman (1913-1975) was crowned Miss Chicago 1931 and relocated to Hollywood 1934, where she became as well known as a socialite as for her minor movie roles (mostly as uncredited chorus girls, in "Broadway Melody of 1936," "Gold Diggers of 1937," "After the Thin Man," etc.), but it's a pretty common name and we have no further evidence that this book belonged to that particular Irene Coleman. This is a romance set at an RAF bomber base during WWII; some freshwater fishing is also involved. "Very good" but with some mottling to the boards. Jacket chipped to both head and heel of spine. "A Wartime book." Jacket has been price clipped. Potential buyers are again advised to examine our scans carefully -- Date in the second line of the author inscription, at least, is curious. 246 pp. Reduced from $430. Signed by Author(s).
