Thriller vintage paperback “The Shadow Man” [1966] The Night Walker is abroad again… Seemingly unread vintage paperback
Original price was: $42.00.$34.02Current price is: $34.02.
This is a "near fine" vintage paperback published in Great Britain in 1966 by Badger Books.
Edition is not indicated. This book is "as new" having no signs it has ever been read. I have seen "new" books in Barnes and Nobles that are not as nice as this little gem! The only real flaw to call out is a light dent in the upper front cover spine corner. See accompanying images and video for full condition details. Will ship promptly, carefully packaged, insured.
