Item description from seller

First UK edition. Publisher's blue boards with gilt spine lettering. Very slightly faded spine (with the Publisher's logo ghosted onto the spine) overall a near fine copy with bright and clean boards and very clean interior. In the first issue dust wrapper priced 8/6 net to the spine (as called for). The D/W is near fine (just a hint of toning to the spine) and with the tiniest of shallow chipping at the head and tail of the spine. A much nicer copy than normally seen. Appleby # 8 which sees him in "Nestfield" University (a scarcely disguised Leeds) investigating the death of an academic who has been killed by a falling meteorite. Photographs/scans available upon request.
