The Adventure Of The Priory School. A Facsimile of the original Sherlock Holmes Manuscript. Introduction by Len Deighton.

DEIGHTON, Len [Arthur Conan DOYLE].

Santa Barbara, CA: Santa Teresa Press, 1985. [Sherlockiana] SIGNED LIMITED EDITION. Octavo (23 x 16cm), pp.90. No.226 of 350 copies signed by the author. Publisher's brown cloth titled in gilt in printed yellow dust-wrapper. Very light and minor spotting to edges of textblock, spotting and sunning to jacket spine. Near Fine. Deighton's essay dwells on the universal appeal of the Sherlock Holmes adventures, but also on the contributions that Doyle made beyond the realms of literature - for instance his assistance in designing the naval life jacket used in World War I. A curious bit of writing linking two great maters of the thriller genre. Item #70473
