MANNING, Olivia. The Doves of Venus. London: Heinemann. 1955. 8vo. First edition. Publisher’s green cloth lettered in gilt to the side, in the dust jacket designed by Lynton Lamb. A very good copy. The cloth clean and bright, the backstrip slightly toned and marked, corners and tips very gently bumped, the binding tight and square. A few light marks to the textblock edges, one page with small closed tear and crease to top edge. The contents otherwise clean. The dust jacket unclipped, slightly faded to the spine panel, spine tips and corners gently rubbed and a trifle nicked. A few light marks elsewhere but a sharp example.
