The Deputy Sheriff of Comanche County

Tarzana, CA: Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc, 1940. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. 8vo., 312pp. Beautiful Stated First Edition, bound in pebbled grey cloth with titles stamped in red. Square, tight and clean throughout with little or no wear save the gentlest of bumping to the spine ends but quite minor. Equally attractive unclipped first state, (laminated), dust-jacket, ($2.00), has a only a hint of a crinkle to the crown. Fresh and bright with no chipping, toning or tears. John Coleman Burroughs designed the jacket, the frontispiece, and 22 chapter head pieces. A stunning collectable copy. (Zeuschner, p.49-50; Currey p.92).
