About This Item
London: Penguin, (1953). First paperback edition, first printing. This is a near fine copy. Most of these surviving paperbacks are in weatherbeaten condition – this is a superior copy. Slightly worn at the edges with some light handling marks, it is bright. There is slight toning to the front fly. It is free from inscriptions and is, overall, a near fine copy.
The first paperback edition of Christie's famous crime novel, The Body in the Library.
