End of the Affair - Graham Greene dust jacket
I have a decent copy of Greene's 1951 "The End of the Affair"
published by William Heinemann. This was purchased from a less than reputable seller who failed to mention that it was sans dj. Such is life. Now I didn't buy this book as an investment, it happens to be my favorite Greene book and in fact one of my favorite books. I would very much like to have a true dust jacket for it but realize that is a bit of a pipe dream. But if some kind soul would scan his or her copy of the dust cover for me I would very much appreciate it. Something at 300dpi or better would work well. Thanks very much. Kevin |

I hope it's obvious that these are copies. But at $20 I will have to pass my self. Take care. Kevin |

Why would you be alarmed at being able to purchase jacket reproductions? In some cases, it may be the ONLY way to get a jacket for a particular title--at least absent a small fortune. For example, I bought a repro for "This Is Murder" by Charles Kenny (Erle Stanley Gardner)--I've been looking for 5 years and have only seen one real jacketed copy--and that one tattered and sold for $600. The facsimile protects my copy and looks nice, and until I can get a real one it will do. Hope you are able to find what you're looking for. henry |

Henry the only reason I was alarmed was the worry that someone might
make a copy where it wasn't clearly marked as a "facsimily" and that someone might not know they were buying a fake dj. Other that that I have no concerns at all. If someone does scan me a cover I will, if they haven't, mark it up as a copy. So far no offers... Kevin henry wrote in message ldomain...
