Introduction
Agatha Christie (1890 – 1976) is one of the greatest crime novelists of our time with sales of her books reaching over four billion copies worldwide.
Although Christie had written romance novels, short stories and screenplays this eBook concentrates only on her crime writings. It consists of the books that she herself had written up to the time of her death.
This price guide gives information and photographs of the colour of the cloth, illustrations of the dust jackets of each book including the first American editions along with estimated and/or realised prices with and without the dust jacket wherever possible. This information is vital in finding the first impressions as sometimes the copyright pages are missing making it difficult to ascertain if it is a true first. The cloth boards may be a different colour for later impressions.
All the books are in chronological order from the date that they were published and US first editions shown where relevant.
This eBook is ideal for collectors of Agatha Christie books as you can at a glance the edition, publisher etc. and a look at the dust jacket to aid in your search for the appropriate copy that you need for your collection. Later editions may have different dust jackets therefore by using this eBook it will aid your search.
Some of the Agatha Christie titles are so scarce that they don’t often come up for auction or are unavailable to buy at present on Internet bookstores. I have used dates when they had been offered for auction as a guide. Naturally, these prices may have risen since the date of auction so bear this mind. This eBook was published in 2013 and will be updated annually.
I hope you enjoy this eBook!
