Description:
Clayton Rawson wrote two mysteries under the pseudonym "Stuart Towne" before going on to found the Mystery Writers of America and editing Elery Queen's Mystery Magazine . This is the first, and the only hardback---very rare with jacket. This copy is cocked, stamped on f.e.p. with "The Walsh Treasure Chest, Forest Hills, N.Y." (from whence it was originally sold), has wear commensurate with its age, and has the original jacket (except the inside front flap) that bears the marks of many readings. The book is very good-shape, and the jacket good+ only. Priced mainly on rarity.Photo on request.
