Beschreibung:

Charteris (Leslie) Death is So Permanent, original typescript of unpublished, unfinished Simon Templar story with manuscript corrections in pencil and purple ink by the author, 60pp., a few pages with rust marks from old paperclip, some creasing, first and last pp. with some marginal chips and tears, in original envelope addressed to Leslie Charteris in Florida, dated Aug 64, [c.1964]; and 2 later drafts of the same, 4to (3) ⁂ A sizeable portion of an unpublished and apparently unfinished Simon Templar story. The story involves Simon Templar being hired by the millionaire Abel Wain to protect his son. Both of the later drafts include a title page with The Saint logo, one includes a dedication page and both have been substantially reworked from the earlier draft. We have been unable to discover any reason for this manuscript remaining uncompleted, however the last Saint story by Charteris was published in 1963 making this one of the last attempts by Charteris to continue the adventures of The Saint.
