[Crime Fiction] SIGNED EDITION. Fifth printing. Octavo (19 x 13cm), pp.320. Publisher's orange cloth lettered in black. Contents clean, gently sunned to the spine, lightly handled. Autographed by Freeman on the title page, for his local library. This copy has one discreet stamp, tag to rear endpaper, neat 'withdrawn' notice to f…ront endpaper and shelf number to foot of spine. Institutional marking aside, this is a clean, bright copy. A Dr. Thorndyke mystery. Dr Richard Austin Freeman lived in Gravesend, Kent, where at least one of his novels was based. He served on the Library Committee and as footpaths expert for Gravesend Historical Society, and signed their holdings of his books. In 2007 these were sold off to a friend of the Library, to raise funds (replacements were donated, a Kent County Council redacted letter of provenance was provided). A rare signed copy with guaranteed authenticity. Cooper and Pike; Detective Fiction p137-141. Signed.
