Masterpieces of Mystery: Cherished Classics (Signed First Edition)

Queen, Ellery; Compiler (Fredrick Dannay & Manfred Lee)

Edité par Davis Publications, New York, 1978

8vo., 351pp. Beautiful volume in this classic series of mystery and detective stories. Bound in bright red cloth with gilt lettering and decoration. Authors include Doyle, Poe, Sayers, Hammett, and many others, including a contribution from Queen, who also wrote the introduction and selected the stories. Square, tight and clean throughout with little or no wear. Seems unread. No jacket as issued. Inscribed and signed on the half-title page, (curiously placed after the title page), in the hand of Richard Dannay, " To John, with all best, 'Ellery Queen'". (The other half of Ellery Queen is Manfred Lee), A gorgeous collectable copy and volumes from this set are very rarely found signed. Indeed, this is the only signed volume currently in the marketplace. N° de réf. du vendeur 017386
