THE RUBBER BAND in Saturday Evening Post from 2-29-1936 through 4-4-1936, first edition, 6 volumes complete, all in full color pictorial wraps (one having a Norman Rockwell cover) an occasional light stain to the spine or slight wear, but all issues are vg+ and/or better copies. Also contains the original work of Booth Tarkington, Connie Mack, J. P. Marquand (3 installments of the the second Mr. Moto novel), A.S.W. Rosenbach, et.al. The true first edition of this, the 3rd Nero Wolfe title. Rare thus and much more difficult to locate than the most definitely later book format. Perhaps your only chance to procure this scarce offering.

The third Nero Wolfe novel by Rex Stout, following the adventures of the legendary detective and his assistant, Archie Goodwin, as they tackle a case linked to a long-standing claim and cryptic clues.
