Long out-of-print, this has long been the definitive book on the case of Alice Crimmins, the attractive cocktail waitress in Queens (New York City) whose two children were kidnapped & murdered in 1965. She was vilified on the basis of her lifestyle, which didn't fit that of a "proper wife & mother" in the early 1960s. Very well-written by a reporter for the New York Post & Newsday, in 270 pages + 8 pages of real black-and-white photos in center. From the collection of one true-crime enthusiast (with their name label on ffep), this is a Book Club Edition (BCE) of the First Edition from 1975. With olive green cloth-covered boards lettered in light blue to front & spine, the hardcover book is in Near Fine condition: completely clean, binding strong & straight, pages slightly off-white & unmarked. Very mild corner bumping.The unclipped DJ is VG, with mild edgewear & rubbing to extremities, but no fading; protected in new mylar cover Free!
