The Mask of Dimitrios

London: Hodder and Stoughton, 1939. First Edition. A beautiful copy of the author's most famous book, basis for the 1944 film noir written for the screen by Frank Gruber and starring Sydney Greenstreet, Peter Lorre, and Zachary Scott.

Very Good or better in a Fine dust jacket. Slight spine lean, with spine cloth lightly faded and titles and rule a bit rubbed. Jacket is lovely, with some expert restoration along the top and bottom edges.

In a custom maroon quarter-leather clamshell box.

The Dark Page I: 1940-1949, p. 4.
