1936 Doubleday hardcover
First American Edition of THIS GUN FOR HIRE (1936), preceding the British edition by one month).
A masterpiece of genre fiction, basis for the 1942 film noir starring Alan Ladd, Veronica Lake and Laird Cregar. The film was Ladd’s first appearance on the big screen, and the only time he ever played a villain. He became famous as a result of the film’s success, and would go on to be cast along-side Veronica Lake in ‘The Glass Key’ and ‘The Blue Dahlia.’ Copies in dustjacket are quite scarce, this being the only jacketed copy of the American edition we’ve seen offered in the trade since 2009.
