About This Item
Collins, 1977. All books are signed and inscribed by Jonathan Gash to his friends good Roy and Pat. Five of the twelve volumes are double signed (additionally on the title page without dedication). Most are signed on the date of publication. This is perhaps the best inscribed set of these books available for purchase in the last decade. Twelves volumes in total. Original red boards, titles to spines gilt. With the dust jackets. An excellent set in the dust jackets some neatly clipped. First editions, first impressions. The first twelve books in the Lovejoy detective series. A vastly underrated series of mystery novels which replicate the first TV series starring Ian McShane; hard-hitting and brutal in nature. Whilst the TV series became more light hearted, the novels stand as a gritty canon and a really good read.
