Title: The Face on the Cutting-Room Floor
Description: London, Victor Gollancz Ltd, 1974. Cloth. A terrific facsimile reissue of this unusual crime novel by Ernest Borneman, posing to be a true story by one Cameron McCabe.

In the original cloth binding. With the original unclipped dust wrapper. Externally, very smart, with marks to the spine caused by tape and minor bumping to the extremities. Dust wrapper is excellent, with minimal edge wear. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean, with only minor tape marks to the pastedowns. Very Good Indeed . Ill.: None. Very Good Indeed/Fine.
