New York: Simon & Schuster. NF/VG+. 1959. 1st Edition. Hardcover; 1st Printing. 13, 20, 22. 596010 . 1st edition/1st printing. First Printing stated on copyright page. A near fine book bound in black paper-covered boards with a light aqua-blue spine with yellow printing and dull red upper page edges (straight, clean, and has no previous owner names or handwriting; a touch of a wrinkle to upper spine cloth and another touch of shelf-wear to spine ends plus a bit of the page-darkening this book always has) in a very good plus to near fine dustjacket (price intact, clean, bright and crisp; it has a couple of tiny, closed edge tears, a couple of tiny edge nicks, and a few very small surface rubs primarily at fold and spine ends). From dustjacket: "She's bored; he's broke. To solve both problems, they think up the Cuernavaca Summer Work Shop, an art school, and a hilarious romp begins when they invite the public to Please Write for Details." This book, an out-of-mystery-genr e diversion for the author, was never reprinted or made into a book club edition. .
