BE SHOT FOR SIXPENCE

First edition, first printing. Association copy. Publisher's original red cloth with gilt titles to the spine, in dustwrapper. A better than very good copy, the binding square and firm, the cloth bright and fresh. The contents, with light offsetting and the ink stamp of 'Colin Lesslie Productions' on the front pastedown, are otherwise clean throughout. Complete with the lightly rubbed, nicked and creased dustwrapper which has a few short closed tears to the edges and a touch of fading to the spine. Not price-clipped (12s 6d).

The copy of actor and producer Colin Lesslie who went on to produce the 1959 film adaptation of Gilbert's 'Death in Captivity' released in the UK under the title 'Danger Within' and in the US as 'Breakout'. (Hubin).
