Dell “map back” mystery Agatha Christie “The Murder at the Vicarage” Vintage 1948 paperback
$184.00 Original price was: $184.00.$149.04Current price is: $149.04.
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. Text block edges are somewhat thumbed and show some tanning. Front cover has a hint of curl to it, clear coating is present on boards, however, has lifted from spine, which is sunned.
Still, a very pleasing copy, with that famous Dell map back dynamic artwork!
This edition has begun to become rather scarce.

Dell Map-back “Wolf in Man’s Clothing” c.1942 Mignon G. Eberhart Murder mystery vintage paperback
This is a "good plus" or better vintage paperback with the desirable "map back" design that Dell Books popularized in the Forties, published in circa 1942.

A name is penciled inside on front free end paper, otherwise, no marks. No loose, torn or folded pages. Please see the images for complete condition details. This is the sixth book in Ms. Eberhart's popular Sarah Keates series of titles. In total she wrote 7 titles featuring this character. Will ship promptly, carefully packaged.
