Hardback in dust-wrapper designed by Raymond Hawkey, who designed the classic 1960s James Bond paperbacks for Pan Books. With accompanying booklet of promotional 1941 postage stamps, issued for the book trade; objections from the Royal Mail meant many were recalled/confiscated or destroyed. Scarce thus. Book is near fine, with jacket spine slightly sunned, faint dampmark at foot. Ephemeral item is fine.

This copy is from the comprehensive Ian Fleming Bibliographical Archive assembled by Jon Gilbert, with his pencilled ownership. Milward-Oliver; Len Deighton Annotated Bibliography p.41.

New York: For The Crime Club by Doubleday & Co., 1972. [Crime Fiction] FIRST EDITION. Precedes the British hardcover. Octavo (21 x 14cm), pp.186. Publisher's black cloth hardback with yellow titles to spine, pictorial dust-jacket priced at $4.95. Contents clean, no inscriptions, some minor wear to front hinge, crisp jacket with a touch of edge wear. Fine. A novelisation of a Saint story originally created for the 1960s television series starring Roger Moore. The theme was suggested by Leslie Charteris to writer Fleming Lee, who produced a synopsis; in the producers hands, this treatment was adapted as a script by another writer, the original Charteris/Lee elements being 'barely recognisable'. Charteris persisted, persuading Lee to novelise their original outline, which Charteris revised in person. Steinbrunner and Penzler, pp.349-351.
