Some spotting commensurate with the climate, spine sunned, some marks to rear cover. Very good. Crime short stories, featuring Hercule Poirot. A presentable copy of an extremely rare title; permission was granted for Odhams to produce an edition, which was printed shortly after this true first in huge numbers and is far more common. Collins editions of Christie's best-selling thrillers series were imported by British overseas territories across the globe, as demonstrated by the present copy; jackets for such copies were usually unpriced. Still trading, A. H. Wheeler & Co. Pvt. Ltd., an Indian-owned chain of bookshops, was founded in 1877 and mainly operates from railway station bookstalls.
