Product Description
Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company, 1949. First American Edition, First Printing. Exceptional copy in collectible condition, this is Chandler's fifth Philip Marlowe novel featuring artwork by Boris Artzybasheff. Notable for its Hollywood setting and darker, more cynical tone. Near Fine in a Near Fine- dust jacket. First issue orange cloth. Interior clean throughout. No ownership names, bookplates, or marks. Original dust jacket is unclipped and bright, with strong color. Minor closed tears at the crown and tail and small scuff to spine. Light soiling to the rear panel, and some wear at the corners; overall a very nice example. An introspective entry in the series, reflecting postwar Los Angeles and Hollywood's corrosive influence. Prized for its sharp social observations.
