Sobre este artículo
London: Macmillan,, 1977. There's always time for one more pint First edition, first impression, inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper, "Best wishes always, John! And thank you for your support. Colin Dexter". This copy is possibly inscribed to Dexter's brother, John, a fellow classicist. This is the third Inspector Morse novel; the books were made into one of the most successful British television crime dramas of all time, running from 1987-93, starring John Thaw in the titular role. Octavo. Original dark green boards, spine lettered in white, cream endpapers. With dust jacket. Neat ownership inscription of J. H. Stanley-Jones on front free endpaper. Spine a touch cocked, spine ends and one corner very lightly bumped, a touch of rubbing to extremities, edges a little foxed. A near-fine copy in lightly toned jacket, price-clipped, very sharp, with just a few creases to one corner and top edges of flaps.
