Who Stole Sassi Manoon?

New York: Random House, 1969. Edition not indicated. Signed by the author and inscribed to noted collector Jeffrey Hansen on the title page. Octavo, 178 pp. Black cloth backed orange paper boards, gilt spine lettering, red question marks on cover. Hansen's rubber stamp on ffep, tiny printed word "jane" in ink on bottom front jacket flap. Minor peripheral wear and page edge soiling. Light wear to unclipped jacket, no chips or tears. About near fine in like jacket. Westlake's gimmicky title was a simple de rigeuer necessity of the time [late 60's], as was his aggregating of whacky characters, but the humor is timeless. Uncommon Random House copy [1st UK Edition by Hodder & Stoughton is easier to find], scarcer yet with the signature. L21
