THE MURDER OF LALLA LEE.
New York: Tudor Publishing, 1932.
First Edition. Hardcover. First Edition thus by the author of The Telltale Telegram. A tense mystery of bigamy and murder originally published as a "Scarlet Thread" mystery by McBride in 1931. Speculation suggests that Tudor bound this edition possibly from the remaining McBride sheets but with a newly printed Tudor title-page which still shows "First Published, March, 1931" on the verso. Small 8vo. 274 pp. A fine fresh copy (previous collector's neat name on the front free endpaper), in black cloth, red titles to the spine in a wonderful example of the price intact art deco dustwrapper. Size: Small 8vo.
