Books Wanted

We are always keen to buy good quality individual books and collections.
Authors of particular interest in the crime field include Dashiell Hammett,
Raymond Chandler, John Rhode, Miles Burton, E.C.R. Lorac,
Rupert Penny and pre-1942 titles from The Crime Club (Collins).

Dashiell Hammett

We were collectors long before we began buying and selling for a living, and one of our longest-held interests is Dashiell Hammett. Currently Mark is working on updates to this distinguished author's bibliography, and is also compiling a record of inscribed copies of his five novels (firsts and reprints): if you have an inscribed Hammett yourself we should be most grateful if you would share the details.

Wanted for our collection: Dashiell Hammett's 'The Glass Key'. The first British edition in dust-wrapper. Blue cloth; white dust-wrapper showing a gunman on the front panel. Published in London in 1931 by Knopf, and also seen in a Cassell binding. Pre-1945 British reprints and even a dust-wrapper on its own would also be of interest.
