Only the Dead Know Brooklyn Pulp Edition

Wolfe, Thomas. Only the Dead Know Brooklyn. New York: Signet Books 1952. This was the 3rd Printing. About 4" x 7." Contains 150 pages. Cover art by Rudy Nappi depicts a blond woman with her suitor as they lean against the stairs of a New York City brownstone. Citygoers stroll beneath the amber glow of streetlamps, as the sun fades over the Brooklyn Bridge. From the back: "This is the itinerary of a lost man, wandering through the wilds of Brooklyn seeking something he cannot name. It is one of the haunting, powerful stories in the brilliant collection by one of America's immortal writers." Gutter is cracking a bit but still holding. The cover art is vibrantly colored and bright. Very good condition.
