LOT 3101
WHEATLEY, Dennis and J. G. LINKS. Who Killed Robert Prentice? London: Hutchinson & Co., [1937.] 50th thousand, with an a.l.s. by Dennis Wheatley to Louis Golding, 4to (257 x 196mm.) Numerous samples and facsimile clues. (Toning.) Original card wrappers, ribbon-bound, also signed and inscribed by Dennis Wheatley to Louis Golding on the verso of the upper cover (browning, creasing to extremities). Note: the 20-line typed letter to the writer Louis Golding- dated June 1937- requests that Golding sign some volumes of his books for him because 'association copies add so very much to an interesting collection like my own'. Wheatley goes on to refer to the book that he is currently writing: 'I'm doing a straight book for a change upon Stalin's probable successor Voroshiloff'. That book was published later in the same year. Wheatley's library was indeed fairly impressive. It was sold by Basil Blackwell's in 1979.
