  • Cloth
  • New York: Self-Published, 1925
By Barron Collier
New York: Self-Published, 1925. Cloth. Very Good +. The uncommon 1925 1st edition, including a laid-in period (1920s) envelope from the NYC Police Department. This copy at one time belonged to Benjamin Taffee, the Chief of Police of the Kalamazoo, Michigan Police Department (whose name and title appear on the first blank endpaper). A very solid copy to boot: Clean and VG+ to Near Fine in its navy-blue cloth. Octavo, wonderful black-and-white photos and illustrations throughout.
