Graham Greene: A Private Collection

GRAHAM GREENE

3. The Man Within Heinemann, 1929. First edition. Original black cloth, let - tered in gilt, in cream dustwrapper printed in blue. A fine copy in a very good dustwrapper indeed with light tan- ning to the spine and vertical creases to the upper cover and spine. [44631] £3,750 The author’s first novel.

4. The Name Of Action Heinemann, 1930. First edition. Original dark blue cloth lettered in gilt in yellow dustwrapper printed in black and red. A fine copy with light foxing to the fore edge, in a near fine dustwrapper with a small chip to the head, but otherwise crisp and unusually bright. [44626] £6,000 The author’s second novel. The first issue (with the original 7/6 price) is now uncommon, without being unobtainably rare, however the dustwrapper’s light colouring and thin stock mean it is very seldom encoun- tered in bright and undamaged condition.
