Claire Spencer - Gallow's Orchard - 1st/1st 1930 Cape, Original Jacket, Art Deco

Description: Title: Gallows Orchard Author: Claire Spencer Publisher: Jonathan Cape and Harrison Smith, New York Edition: First Printing, First Edition Date Printed: 1930 Description: A very nice example of the first printing of the first edition. Strange crime mystery novel, listed in Hubin, set in Scotland. Original cloth hardback in the original art deco dustwrapper. 285 pages. The dustwrapper is in not price clipped and shows the original $2.50 price to the inside front flap. It is in unusually pleasing condition, with some light rubbing to the covers, just the slightest hint of creasing to the edges, and unobtrusive reinforcement to the spine-ends at the inner surface, not visible externally (please see pictures). The book itself is likewise sound and attractive, having been protected by the dustwrapper, with titles remaining bright, and with some bumping to the corner-tips and spine-ends (see picture). Internally clean. Binding sound and square. A very nice example. Bookplates of Maude Willard and John Ruyle to the front endpaper.
