Item description from seller

First edition. Variant binding, no illustration of Prof. Van Dusen on front board. Hinges weakening, boards lightly rubbed. Binding tight and square, pages clean, bright, and unmarked. 1907 Hard Cover. 342 pp. A Haycraft-Queen cornerstone. Futrelle, known for his stories featuring Professor Augustus S. F. X. Van Dusen (the thinking machine referenced in this title), was a passenger on the RMS Titanic, and died when it sank. "The Thinking Machine" is a classic 1907 short story collection by American author Jacques Futrelle. It chronicles the exploits of Professor Augustus S.F.X. Van Dusen, a brilliantly irascible, diminutive scientist who solves seemingly impossible "locked-room" crimes and riddles through the pure, uncompromising application of logic.
