Sobre este artículo
First edition, first impression. Signed by David Suchet to the title page, who played Poirot in the TV adaptation of the book. A page seemingly extracted from an autograph book bearing the author's signature is loosely laid in.
Original cloth with black lettering to spine. Previous owner name to front endpaper; some sunning to spine and faint soiling to boards in places and rubbing to edges; corners a touch bumped with a small and faint area of soiling to rear endpaper and slight cracking to rear hinge.
The original dust jacket is complete and unclipped with a little loss to spine foot, a few tears to edges and some toning to spine panel verso.
