Casino Royale – Ian Fleming

Description

HARDBACK – A fine book, bound in the publisher’s black cloth boards with clean unfaded red lettering to the spine and heart motif to the front panel. Internally, the pages are very clean indeed with the merest hint of foxing to the end papers, but extremely clean throughout the rest of the inner text. Free of any previous owner names or inscriptions. The dust wrapper is also in fine condition with no loss or tears present, also with no loss of colour or dulling to the spine. There is very minor creasing to the head of the spine, also with a small strip of toning to the top of the rear flap, with a few very faint spots to the rear panel, else a beautiful looking jacket with the publisher’s printed price of 10s.6net present to the lower corners of the front flap and rear flaps. There is no review to the front lower rear panel, denoting a correct first issue dust wrapper. Included with the book is a custom made, felt lined clam shell box with raised bands and gilt lettering to the spine, for the books future protection. We have handled a number of copies of Casino Royale in the last twenty five years of dealing in Ian Fleming titles. This copy is the best copy we have handled in this time. A sublime copy.
