First edition, first printing. Publisher's original red cloth with black titles to the spine, in dustwrapper. A very good copy, the binding square and firm, with some bumping and rubbing at the spine tips, the cloth a touch toned to the upper edge. The contents, with some offsetting to the endpapers and a previous owner's armorial bookplate to the front pastedown, are otherwise clean throughout. Complete with the lightly rubbed and nicked dustwrapper, that has a couple of tiny closed tears and some toning to the edge of the rear panel. Not price-clipped (12s 6d net to the lower front flap).
A Hercule Poirot mystery. (Hubin; Wagstaff & Poole; Curran, John: The Hooded Gunman).
