Nobody's Perfect

DONALD E. WESTLAKE

Publication: M Evans and Company, Inc, 1977, New York

First edition. Brief inscription on the front fly leaf, "Hello, Sam, Donald Westlake." Fine in dust jacket. The Dortmunder gang is hired by Arnold Chauncey to steal a priceless oil painting from his fashionable East Side Manhattan townhouse. A simple scheme whereby Chauncey collects from the insurance company, pays the gang handsomely for their efforts, and ends up with both a tidy profit and his cherished artwork back. A simple plan that Dortmunder and his gang manage to bungle most properly. An exceptional copy.
