COLLINS, Dale. The Mutiny of Madam Yes
COLLINS, Dale. The Mutiny of Madam Yes. London: George G. Harrap. 1935. 8vo. First edition. Publisher’s navy cloth lettered in gilt to the spine, in the striking dust jacket designed by ‘PC’. A splendid example, near fine. The cloth with a handful of small dark ink blots to the lower portion of the front board, else clean and bright, sharp, the binding tight and square, a trifle pulled at one or two leaves but minor, the contents fine throughout. The dust jacket priced at 7/6 net to spine panel, with a handful of very minor bumps to some edges, minor vertical crease to rear panel, perhaps some mild and high-quality professional restoration. A very well-preserved copy overall. Scarce.
A rather phenomenal copy of this scarce crime adventure novel in which the titular protagonist, Madam Yes, boards an arms-filled vessel bound for China. When the arms financier and her boyfriend captain are murdered, mutiny sets in and Madam Yes becomes the leader of a band of modern pirates, sacking a liner and more. Scarce. Not in Hubin.
