COE, Charles Francis

G MAN

First edition. Bookstore stamp on the front pastedown, a bit cocked, a well-read but still nice, very good copy in an attractive, very good plus pictorial dustwrapper with a discreet crease on the spine and slight spine fade. Several of Coe's works were adapted into film, including Nancy Steele is Missing! with Peter Lorre, The Gay Bride with Carole Lombard and Raoul Walsh's Me, Gangster, also with Lombard and co-scripted by Coe. A classic hardboiled gangster novel. Very scarce in jacket.
