First Edition. *** GREAT ASSOCIATION COPY *** THE DEVIL AND DANIEL WEBSTER, Farrar & Rinehart, 1937, first edition (third printing), very slight wear to the base of the spine and lower fore edge corner tips, else a tight near fine copy in a vg pictorial dust-wrapper with some light wear and tear and three very modest chips. Illustrated by Harold Denison. Inscribed by the author "To my friend Willard Wright -for whom even Dan was no match -S V Benet." This reference no doubt is to Willard Wright's own fictional character, Philo Vance, as Mr Wright wrote many detective novels under the pseudonym of S.S. Van Dine. Source book for the film of the same name (originally released for some strange reason as ALL THAT MONEY CAN BUY allegedly to avoid confusion with another film released by RKO that year, The Devil and Miss Jones). Walter Huston's role in this film as Scratch, aka The Devil, is precious. Especially the very last scene !!!
