The Sign of the Four.

DOYLE, [Sir] Arthur Conan (1859-1930).

New York, NY: Street and Smith, no date [circa 1900]. [Sherlock Holmes] PIRATE EDITION. Octavo (19 x 13cm), pp.[4] 176 [12]. Publisher's maroon cloth with gilt titles to spine. Browning to endpapers, but surprisingly clean otherwise. A superior pirate edition. Rubbing and bumping to corners, toning to spine, and heavy rubbing to head and tail, with the head-cap pulled entirely away. Very good. Yellow fog is swirling through the streets of London and Sherlock Holmes himself is sitting in a cocaine-induced haze until the arrival of a distressed and beautiful young lady forces the great detective into action. Item #57077

"There is no such thing as a moral or an immoral book. Books are well written, or badly written. "

"Always read something that will make you look good if you die in the middle of it."

"There are perhaps no days of our childhood we lived so fully as those we spent with a favourite book."

"Outside of a dog, man's best friend is a book. Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read."
