The Unknown Quantity

Ethel M. Dell
Hutchinson, London

First Edition Thus. Great copy of this novel by a hugely popular author of yesteryear. undated, but from 1950s. Light dust-marking to top edges but VG or better in superb, full-colour pulp-style dw.

Announced on wrapper and title page as 163rd Thousand but, let's face it, where Hutchinson was concerned, print-runs were always an unknown quantity.

Written by Dr Jeremy Parrott, who has the book in his hands. Nothing here is generated from a catalogue record.
