WOOLRICH, Cornell

Times Square

First edition. Fine in near fine dustwrapper with a few small tears, a couple of tiny nicks, and some slight age-toning at the spine. The third, and in our experience, the scarcest of the author's six F. Scott Fitzgerald-influenced novels of the Jazz Age, published before he made his name writing noir thrillers. "A story of the gay and tawdry little boys and girls whose playground is Broadway." Pretty, hard-boiled flapper intermittently supports her gad-about boyfriend as he trips the lights fantastic. Exceptionally uncommon, the only copy we've seen in jacket.
