Description: The Case of the Sun Bather’s Diary by Erle Stanley Gardner Title: The Case of the Sun Bather’s Diary Author: Erle Stanley Gardner Binding: Cloth Cover Material: Tan Cloth Boards Fiction/Non-Fiction: Fiction Format: Hardback Published: 1955 Publisher: Walter J. Black Edition: First Edition (This was originally published by Curtis in 1955 and appears to be the true first edition, as no other printings precede this publication. The bibliographic data suggests that this is the first time the story appeared in book form.) Details A gripping Perry Mason novel that begins with a mysterious sunbather, a stolen diary, and a legal tangle involving murder and deceit. This early Gardner work offers suspense, courtroom drama, and Perry Mason’s classic analytical skills. Published by Walter J. Black in 1955, this first edition is a desirable copy for collectors of vintage crime fiction. Condition Condition: Very Good+ Dust jacket shows minor edgewear and small tears but remains vibrant. There is some shelf wear, but overall, it is in very good condition. The jacket is protected by a custom archival-quality protective cover. The boards are clean and solid, showing only minimal shelf wear. Slightly cocked spine, with bright pages exhibiting off-white discolouration and discoloured edges. A signature from the previous owner is present on the endpapers. Dust Jacket: Unclipped, well-preserved with minor edgewear and slight tears. I encourage you to closely review the photos for any further condition specifics. Shipping & Other Details The book will be mailed in a cardboard mailer designed for collectible books. All returns are welcome, and I aim to dispatch items the next working day after payment. Tags #VintageMystery #PerryMason #ErleStanleyGardner #CollectibleBooks #CrimeFiction
