SEX LIFE OF A SPY
1960ref. 48969n.p.: n.p. 1960. Near fine. Presumed first edition of this photo-illustrated erotic pulp thriller full of sex violence Cold War sleaze and poisoned brandy. Following the best practices of espionage tradecraft the publisher of this sub-Flemingian adventure eliminated from its pages all clues to its issue and origin save for the $3.25 printed cover price. The story itself can be approximately dated by the cameo appearance of "Miss Marlene Dietrich queen of the nightclubs slithering onto the stage" in a white diamonté sheath dress and fox fur; also by the use of a Ford Zephyr. Scarce. 7'' x 4''. Original pictorial wrappers. Illustrated with black and white photographs of nude women presumably spies. Unpaginated. Price sticker residue to front cover red remainder mark to lower edge of text block. Minor traces of soil and edgewear to wrappers. n.p. unknown
