soft. Zustand: Good. Publication: London, Hutchinson & Co. (Publishers) Ltd., 1937 Formatting: 4to, unpaginated. Condition Report: Good. The dossier wrapper exhibits noticeable edge-wear, with typical creasing, fraying, and mild paper loss at the spine extremities. Crucially, the original red string-tie binding and its fragile metal seal remain entirely intact and functional, securing the text block firmly. Internally, the mounted photographs, facsimile manuscript letters, and pasted newspaper clippings are exceptionally bright and well-preserved, showing only faint, occasional age-toning. The structural integrity of the interactive elements is sound, presenting a highly respectable, complete copy despite the external shelf-wear. Catalogue Note: This 1937 release represents the second of the revolutionary "crime dossiers" crafted by the author-planner duo, following the unprecedented success of their initial venture, Murder Off Miami. The "65th Thousand" printed prominently on the front wrapper is a publisher's marketing statement denoting the first impression of this specific title, capitalising on the established audience of its predecessor. The dossier format is profusely illustrated with tipped-in black-and-white photographs, including domestic portraits of the victim, alongside meticulously reproduced typed and handwritten correspondence, official police memoranda, and actual physical clues. Intact copies retaining their original ribbon and seal are increasingly scarce on the open market, as the interactive, consumable nature of the book encouraged destructive handling by original readers. An immersive, interactive murder mystery that places the reader directly into the shoes of a 1930s detective. When Robert Prentice is found dead, the official police investigation hits a dead end. Through a meticulously assembled dossier of authentic-feeling evidence, ranging from private letters and witness transcripts to newspaper clippings, you are challenged to sift through the deception, establish motives, and solve the crime before breaking the sealed conclusion to reveal the true killer.

Original copper engraving (44 x 60 cm, overall sheet 53.5 x 66 cm). Tissue guard to verso. Light foxing to lower margin not affecting print. From "A Collection of Prints. Illustrating the Dramatic Works of Shakespeare." published by Boydell, London, 1803. In 1789, the publisher John Boydell opened the Shakespeare Gallery, an exhibition space in London's Pall Mall showcasing paintings that exclusively represented scenes from Shakespeare's plays. The Gallery was a bid to revive 'history painting' (the practice of depicting scenes from the Bible, mythology or the classics) in contemporary British art, a genre thought to be of great public benefit because of its morally instructive messages. What better unifying theme for such a project than the works of Shakespeare, which had become so popular and so integral to British identity by the mid-18th century? The Gallery opened in May 1789 with 34 canvases by 18 British artists. By the next year there were 55 paintings and in 1796 the total was 84, along with dozens of 'Small Pictures'. Once the exhibition was mounted, reproductive engravings of the paintings produced by an in-house team of 46 printmakers were available to purchase, either as a large portfolio of 90 prints or as a luxurious illustrated edition of the plays.
