This Gun for Hire
Doubleday Doran, 1936.
First edition. Original oatmeal cloth with green printed title labels to the spine in pictorial dustwrapper. A fine copy in a very good dustwrapper, which is a little chipped to the head of the spine with some wear to the base and a couple of closed tears. Red lettering to the spine faded.
First published in the US in June 1936, the book was published a month later in the UK as A Gun For Sale. The 1942 Film Noir, starring Alan Ladd and Veronica Lake, used the original American title This Gun for Hire.
