THE NIGHT BEFORE MURDER by Steve Fisher
Popular Library #317, 1951
1st paperback edition
Condition: Near Very Good

A Johnny West mystery with a backstage setting. Spine ends bumped, FC reading crease, modest edge wear, moderate spine slant. Still, a better than usual copy of this uncommon 58-year-old PopLib. And that vintage scantily-clad-good-girl/skeleton-hands cover by Rudolf Belarski!
