Description:
London: Hutchinson & Co, ND. Early Reprint. Hardcover with Dust Jacket. Fair+/Good. Peter Rudland. 8vo. Pp. 160. Bound in taupe cloth with black lettering on spine. Sporadic foxing to endpapers. Top edge dust soiled. Slight lean. In the illustrated dust jacket that shows wear to edges, especially head and tail of spine. Third printing. The Peter Rudland dust jacket art conveys the gloomy ambience of a deserted city street - deserted but for a couple dragging a corpse. See HUBIN, p. 221, who cites this as being first published by Lippincott, and that "William Irish" was one of two pen-names used by Cornell Woolrich; the other was "George Hopley." Dust jacket is now protected in a clear, removable archival sleeve.

Description:
Hutchinson , n.d. . Third impression in rather clumsily clipped jacket. Jacket still looks impressive, but has closed tears & some loss to edges, worst affected at top of spine, & has been intermittently reinforced with tape on the reverse. The book itself is slant, with the front cover set forward, & what I take to be a date has been written in ink at the top of the title page.
