Dell “map back” mystery Agatha Christie “The Murder at the Vicarage” Vintage 1948 paperback
This is a "very good minus" vintage paperback with a solid binding, no significant flaws to speak of, aside from a couple of brief numerical annotations in the end papers, no writing, no loose, torn or folded pages.
