Hardcover. Condizione: Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. 1st Edition. EXECUTIONER: PIERREPOINT - An Autobiography - Signed and warmly inscribed by Albert Pierrepoint to noted crime writer Joe Gaute. A compelling firsthand account by Britain's most renowned executioner, Albert Pierrepoint. This powerful memoir offers a r…are and candid insight into the realities of capital punishment, blending personal reflection with historical context from mid-20th century Britain. Both chilling and thought-provoking, it remains a cornerstone of true crime literature. A notable feature of this book is the presence of a J. H. H. Gaute ownership sticker, indicating provenance associated with the noted crime writer, editor, and criminological researcher, adding further interest to an already desirable title. A highly collectible title, sought after by enthusiasts of criminal history, justice, and British social history. Condition: Good with firm binding. Pages clean with light age toning and no light foxing to prelims and edges. Minor wear and bumping to extremities, with light marks to spine and boards. Small tear along the inner hinge of the front endpaper, exposing binding mesh (as shown). Binding remains firm and fully intact. Conditions & Return Policy: Please note that due to the age, rarity, and collectable nature of these books, returns will not be accepted unless an item has been significantly misdescribed. These are original antiquarian works, many of which are well over 100 years old, and will naturally show signs of age, handling, and use. Some volumes may also contain contemporary printer's marks, proof-reading annotations, ownership inscriptions, or other manuscript markings acquired during their publication or collecting history. These should be regarded as part of the book's provenance and character rather than defects. Please study all photographs carefully, as they form an important part of the description and condition report. If you require any additional photographs or specific images of particular pages, bindings, inscriptions, annotations, or condition details, please feel free to contact me prior to purchase and I will be happy to provide them. All books are carefully packaged between sturdy protective cardboard sheets, placed in a padded jiffy envelope, and securely sealed to provide maximum protection during transit and help ensure it arrives safely.
