After the Funeral.
London & Sydney: For the Crime Club by Collins, 1953. [Crime Fiction] FIRST AUSTRALIAN EDITION. Octavo (19 x 14cm), pp.207; [1], blank. Publisher's red cloth with black titles to spine, dust-jacket designed by Beytagh. No inscriptions. A lovely fine copy of the book, in similar price-clipped wrapper which is slightly toned to the spine. A lovely example. Same format as the British first, which would be twice the price in similar condition. A Hercule Poirot mystery, published as 'Funerals are Fatal' in America. Basis for the 1963 film 'Murder at the Gallop', although Miss Marple replaced Poirot as the sleuth for the big screen. Item #64964
