[Spy thriller] FIRST EDITION, Second Impression, Anthony Lejeune's copy. Octavo (19 x 13cm), pp.240; [2], blank. Publisher's black cloth-effect paper-covered boards, titled and decorated in gilt, with dust-jacket, priced front and rear as issued, at 10/6. This is the correct jacket for this impression (one of two versions used) featuring artist Kenneth Lewis' credit immediately below the blurb in italics. Contents clean, edges a little toned, gilt slightly tarnished (as usual), jacket with some chips and tears, toned and scuffed to rear panel. A very good copy, housed in a leather-spined clamshell box. The second printing is much less common than the first. This is personal copy of Anthony Lejeune, (1928-2018), detective novelist, critic, editor, broadcaster, and crime correspondent hired by Ian Fleming at The Sunday Times, who reviewed all the James Bond novels. Sold by Francis Edwards ABA, then forming part of the Fleming archive assembled by Jon Gilbert with a pencilled note from Fleming bibliographer Jon Gilbert. Gilbert A2a (2).
