The first separate edition (first printing) - never issued as a standalone story in the UK. Crown 8vo. 76pp. Brown cloth lettered in black at the upper board with a green-stamped compartmentalised border and a three-colour illustration. Tissue-protected colour frontispiece illustration. A touch of wear to the head of the backstrip, and just a little marking and chafing to the boards, but with much less flaking to the coloured upper board illustration than is usually found. A trace of spotting to two or three preliminary leaves. A very good copy. Conan Doyle's novella about 'the noble art' was first printed in the October-December 1899 issues of 'The Strand Magazine', and subsequently included in his collection 'The Green Flag and Other Stories of War and Sport' (1900). This present separate edition was published in the US (March 1907) and Canada (May 1908), but never in the UK. Green & Gibson A31.. Book. Book Condition: Very Good.
