Price reduced to $900 NET

SMITH, Thorne. TOPPER: AN IMPROBABLE ADVENTURE. New York: Robert M. 
McBride & Company, 1926. First Edition. A classic humorous ghost story, 
source of both a successful film starring Cary Grant and Oscar-nominated 
Roland Young as Topper as well as a television sitcom starring Leo G. 
Carroll. Interestingly, Stephen Sondheim wrote 11 episodes for Topper's 
first season. This copy is SIGNED and INSCRIBED by the author "To Doctor 
Sanman/To help people is the/meaning of Christ." The front hinge is 
cracked and has been adequately if not professionally repaired at some 
time with glue. Spine darkened with some wear at head. Lacks the scarce 
dustwrapper. Good copy and extremely difficult to find signed.

Tuck, THE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF SCIENCE FICTION AND FANTASY: "A meek and 
henpecked character is haunted by the ghosts of a mischievous girl and 
her jealous husband, who materialise under most embarrassing 
circumstances to torment him" (page 401). (#007923)        $1,500
