Mass Market Paperback. Condition: Near Fine to Fine. First Printing, First Paperback Edition. Vintage Paperback, Pocket Books 77549; the second novel featuring Philip St. Ives, professional international "go-between," this time negotiating the swap of a U.S. ambassador for $1 million plus the release of a Pulitzer Prize-winning…poet; the text is clean, tight, square, appears unread; there is an interesting message to the previous owner on the inside front cover: "Remember when these were our whole Christmas to each other. 'Those were the days my friend.' I love you. Richard. 12/24/72." Other than the inscription -- thought provoking in our current economic times nearly 50 years later -- the pictorial wrappers show only very minimal surface and edgewear. A collectable copy of a hard-to-find early Thomas novel.
