First edition · In dust jacket
New York: Dodd, Mead, 1946. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good +/Good-. Octavo, 279pp. The true first edition, preceding the UK edition by a few months. A crisp, clean copy, very good or better, in the publisher's yellowish cloth, stamped in black. Some gentle dust-soiling to extremities, but the contents clean and sharp. Dust jacket good at best, with sizeable chips at the spine ends, and some creasing and chipping to extremities. Spine sunned. The American edition is considerably scarcer than the UK edition in dust jacket. The ink stamp of Harold Ober and Associates, Christie's American literary agent, appears on the front free endpaper, indicating that this may have been their file copy.
