Josephine Tey – The Franchise Affair – First UK Edition 1948
£1,875.00
A first edition, first printing of ‘The Franchise Affair’ by Josephine Tey published by Peter Davies in 1948. A very good book without inscriptions – fading to the boards and some rubbing to the corners. No inscriptions. In a dust wrapper which has a small chip to the head of the rear panel and some extensive tape repairs to the inside of the folds. Some light wear and a little loss to the corners, some browning to the edges and some light loss and edge chipping. Not price clipped and correctly priced at 9s 6d – the first issue dust wrapper and excessively scarce thus. Tey’s third novel.
