What Our Customers Say...

Description

Early Edition, Publishers' Original Binding

The first edition, twelfth impression. Issued seven years after the true first. 

Understandably lacking the very scarce original dustwrapper.

A very early edition of this important Poirot novel in the Christie canon. 

Agatha Christie is known as the queen of Crime Fiction. She wrote during the Golden Age of the genre and created beloved detectives such as Hercule Poirot with his 'little grey cells' and the inquisitive elderly sleuth Miss Marple. 

The pages are unusually clean.

Condition

In the publisher's original cloth binding. Externally, very smart. Light rubbing to he joints and extremities. Minor bumping to the bottom of board. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright. Minor offsetting to the endpapers. Small ink mark to the bottom edge. Pages are clean.

Very Good Indeed
