I acquired a 1st edition copy of Deadlier Than the Male by James Gunn, 1st edition with dust jacket, published in 1942 by Duell, Sloan and Pearce, Inc. I am wondering if I have some sort of ex-library copy. The dust jacket is in very good condition with a slightly visible quarter inch tape shadow along the top and bottom edge, not price clipped. There are slight tape remnants on the interior of the boards and a stamp on the front free endpaper that says "The Millington, 322 8o. Columbus Ave." However there are no card pockets or other stamps. Is this perhaps a hotel library copy? Thanks in advance, AL >> Stay informed about: Is this an ex-library?
