First US edition of the sixth Judge Dee novel, originally published in 1962 by Art Printing Works, Kuala Lumpur.

Following the traditional Chinese detective structure, Judge Dee must unravel three mysteries. To assist him, he forms an alliance with the local magistrate Chiao Tai, and together they infiltrate the criminal underworld of Wei-ping, remaining incognito among the gangsters for two tense days and nights.

Judge Dee is based on the seventh-century Tang Dynasty magistrate, Di Renjie. Van Gulik first became interested in this historical figure when he translated Dee Goong An in 1949, and he continued to feature Judge Dee throughout his original crime fiction series (1949-1967). A Dutch diplomat and sinologist, Van Gulik incorporated his research into his fiction and also illustrated his novels; this book contains ten of his distinctive woodblock-style illustrations.

Great product, quality colors and vibrant prints
Color: 1BK/1C/1Y/1M
Best Sublimation Ink I have found so far. Great size bottles for the price you pay. Lasts a long time and the colors print great and when you press the print the colors come out BEAUTIFUL and VIBRANT! Dries quickly after printing so no worries on smudging but even after sitting over a month on the paper still presses like you printed it that day!

Consistent, Vibrant Results That Match My Designs Perfectly
Color: 1BK/1C/1Y/1M
I’ve been consistently purchasing this Hiipoo sublimation ink for my sublimation printers, and I’ve been extremely pleased with the results. The print quality is excellent, with vibrant colors and clean transfers every time. What I really appreciate is how true the final product turns out compared to my original designs. The colors stay accurate, and the finished results look exactly the way I intended, which is very important for my projects and products. This ink has been reliable and consistent, and I will definitely continue using it for my sublimation work.

Great quality, Great price
Color: 1BK/1C/1Y/1M
Excellent transfer and image quality. It really does work in an Epson Eco tank, as long as you never fill it with the Epson ink.
