paperback. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Maurice Greiffenhagen (illustrator). 1st Edition, Limited Edition. The work of W. W. Jacobs (1863-1943) occupies a distinctive place in late Victorian and early twentieth-century literature, combining humour, character-driven storytelling and occasional elements of the macabre. Best known for his classic tale The Monkey's Paw, Jacobs wrote extensively about everyday life along the Thames estuary and in London's dockside communities, drawing on his experience in the civil service. His stories are noted for their economical style, sharp observation and memorable twists, ranging from light comic sketches of maritime life to darker, more unsettling narratives. The Monkey's Paw, by W.W. Jacobs; A Facsimile and Transcript of the Original Manuscript, edited by John Jascoll, with additional essays by John Cloy, Anthony James, David Karpeles and Chris Lamerton.
