"The Hound of Death & Other Stories," published by The Crime Club (Collins) in 1936, showcases Agatha Christie’s versatility with a rare collection of supernatural and mystery tales. This near-fine first edition, free of previous owner’s inscriptions or marks, features clean contents throughout. The original publisher’s orange cloth covers, also near fine, exhibit no staining, marks, toning, or darkening to the spine, with no splitting or fraying. A seldom-seen title from Christie’s golden age, this volume offers collectors a near fine example of her lesser-known works, preserved in exceptional condition.
