The League of the Scarlet Pimpernel
Baroness Orczy
Cassell, London · 1919
First Edition. Scarce first edition of this collection of Pimpernel stories. Red cloth lettered in gilt and blind as called for (Parrott: A.31).
Not conventionally dated but code-dated 1919 at rear. Sunning and rubbing to spine and gilt lettering else a near very good of a cheaply made and fragile book. No other copies of the first edition online at time of listing.
My Orczy bibliography is now ready and can be ordered through ABEbooks or directly from me. Complete descriptions of all Orczy's 59 books and many dust-wrappers with notes on issues, variants and later editions. Quality softback of 160pp including 16pp of colour plates.
An invaluable reference work for bookdealers, collectors, librarians and fans. Limited edition of 500 numbered copies.
Written by Dr Jeremy Parrott, who has the book in his hands. Nothing here is generated from a catalogue record.
