Cleveland: World Publishing Company/Forum Books, 1944

8vo, pp. 186. Original black boards, lettered in yellow to front panel and spine. Leading edge uncut. Illustrated dust jacket. Cheap paper stock very browned as usual, but a very good copy in a very good dust jacket with some light edgewear most pronounced at spine ends.

First edition of this two-in-one wartime publication of The Maltese Falcon and The Glass Key.

Poorly made, this copy has survived in much better condition than most.
