The Collector
London: Jonathan Cape, (1963).
Price: $750.00
Hardcover. First edition. Tiny spot in front gutter barely worthy of mention still fine in fine, first issue dustwrapper with very slight toning on rear panel. Author's first book, a masterful account of obsession which was the basis for the William Wyler film with Terence Stamp and Samantha Eggar. Significantly nicer than usually encountered.
