What a true first shows: A stated first printing would typically show a number line or 'First Printing' statement on the copyright page; none is legible in the supplied photo.
Inscription reads "To Frances Maya, with all good works!!" and then signed by Melvin Belli.
Melvin Belli — "The King of Torts" — was the most famous American trial lawyer of his century: pioneer of demonstrative evidence, counsel to Jack Ruby after the Oswald shooting, and attorney to Errol Flynn, Mae West, and Muhammad Ali. The Belli Files collects his own reflections on the cases and the law he spent five decades bending. A first printing of a courtroom legend's memoir — and a natural gift for the lawyer who has everything.
Included with this copy: a new archival mylar jacket protector (fitted, included). Also included is a library card bookmark.
