Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. There were four impressions of this Gollancz first edition "before publication" in September 1963. (The good reviews must have surprised them -- this small book certainly doesn't show any extravagant production values.) Copyright page here identifies this copy as a "Fifth Impression September 1963." Signed "John le Carre" (name only) to a 3-X-5 white card laid in. Card could be tipped or mounted to the FFE, but we have not done so. Frankly, as such artifacts are transferable, our personal preference is for books signed by the author directly to the page, but "laid in" is the way the signature in this (reasonably handsome) copy came to us, and given the desirability of Mr. Le Carre's signature, we have left as found. Book very-good-plus in a very good original dust jacket which has moderately faded to spine. Jacket front flap still reads "18/- net." Rear panel of this unprepossessing little jacket is plain white; it shows a pattern of four moderate smudges near the top which we presume to be fingerprints. Le Carre's breakthrough realistic novel of Cold War espionage was hailed by Graham Greene as "the best spy story I have ever read." The 1965 Martin Ritt film starred Richard Burton, Claire Bloom, and Oskar Werner, garnering Burton an Academy Award nomination. 222 pp. Reduced from $450. Signed by Author(s).
