The Baker Street Journal first series (complete 1946-1949 13 issues )

New York: The Baker Street Irregulars, 1946. First Edition. Original wraps. Octavo, bound in original wraps- A complete run of The Baker Street Journal (first series) published from 1946 to early 1949 in 4 issues per year for 1946, 47, 48 with one issue published in 1949. Thus Vol. 1 #1 through Vol. 4 #1 are present here. Issue 2 in vol. 3 is in only fair condition with partially missing paper backstrip and detached covers- the other issues are generally very good. The Publication resumed in 1951 with the "new series" . Noye that there are shadows near the edges of the pictures- these are not darkeneing of the books themselves. Most of the newer issues are obtainable, but most of the early ones are scarce. The journal was published quarterly, thus there are four issues per year. A letter we have seen from the publisher of the first series stated that the publication was halted after the first issue of the 4th volume. Note: due to weight and size of this set, shipping outside the USA or priority shipping will be more expensive than for an average book. Very good. Item #9797

Price: $285.00
