Soft cover. Condizione: Near Fine. First Printing - First Thus. 156 pp. Trade paperback format. Lightly rubbed on the corners with a flat uncreased spine; no interior markings. Cover art by Rob Pudim. They were pleased, if somewhat puzzled, when two gentlemen with decidedly old-world manners choose to befriend them when their ca…r mysteriously broke down in a small French village while they were on holiday one fine day in 1958. What they didn't know was that the two men were ancestors of theirs. The two had died some 80 years earlier when, emboldened by strong drink and with only a pet monkey and an aged waiter as allies, the two made a valiant, foolish and quite fatal attempt to halt a German advance during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870. Now, these two ectoplasmic gentlemen and their spectral pet monkey were summoned from their final resting place in an unmarked grave because their visiting relatives were in serious trouble. Size: 8vo. Rob Pudim; (illustratore). Book.
