Price reduced to $850 NET

DUNNING, John. DEADLINE. Huntington Beach, CA: James Cahill, 1995. First 
Edition. An early mystery by Dunning published originally in paperback 
and here issued in hardcover for the first time in America in an edition 
of 200 numbered and signed copies as well as a trade edition. This, 
however, is one of only two ORIGINAL BLUES COPIES consisting of eight 
loose prebound signatures, sometimes called a "check copy before 
publication." It is sent from the printer to the publisher before a book 
is printed so the publisher has the opportunity to see the layout of the 
book before it is bound and published. If the publisher is happy with 
the layout, the printer will print from one of the two blues copy. This 
is THE PUBLISHER'S COPY from which the book was printed, the other copy 
belonging to the author. This copy is also SIGNED by the author on the 
title page. Obviously an extremely scarce state of this book. Fine in a 
specially made cloth slipcase. (#010633)        $1,500.00
