Condition: Good

Description: Exceptionally rare advanced proof copy, bound in green paper. Paste-down on front cover reads, "Advance and Uncorrected Proofs. Not to be circulated," along with the publisher information. Paper cover is torn, but all pages are present and complete. At that time, very few advanced copies were made; it is very possible this is the only surviving copy. Housed in custom clamshell box of beige and brown. Sayers’ first novel, Whose Body? introduced detective Lord Peter Wimsey, and is a Haycraft Queen Cornerstone. Remarkable copy of an already rare book! Dealer discounts available. Inquiries welcome.
