Sobre este artículo
Center Books, 1942-01-01. Hardcover. Near Fine/Very Good+. Vintage Hardcover with Scarce DJ, 1942 Center Books/Sun Dial Press 320 pages. Near Fine, in a VG+ DJ. Just a hint of shelf/edge wear to blue cloth boards with black titles and accents - corners sharp. Just a touch of shelf/edge wear and dust soiling to original unclipped DJ - now in mylar. No previous owner markings - all pages are clean, unmarked and lightly toned (due to cheap wartime paper). Endpapers are clean and unmarked.This novel is #43 in the catalog of Center Books and is printed on the spine of the DJ. Leslie Charteris (born Leslie Charles Bowyer-Yin, 12 May 1907 – 15 April 1993), was a British-Chinese author of adventure fiction, as well as a screenwriter. He was best known for his many books chronicling the adventures of his charming hero Simon Templar, alias "The Saint". Charteris's third novel, Meet the Tiger (1928), introduced his most famous creation, Simon Templar. However, in his 1980 introduction to a reprint by Charter Books, Charteris indicated he was dissatisfied with the work, suggesting its only value was as the start of the long-running Saint series. Occasionally, he chose to ignore the existence of Meet the Tiger altogether and claimed that the Saint series actually began with the second volume, Enter the Saint (1930). A very handsome and scarce wartime copy from this small reprint publisher in DJ. LOC SSS-03
