Agatha Christie – Passenger To Frankfurt – First UK Edition 1970 – lightly faded dust wrapper
£150.00
A first edition, first printing, published by Collins in 1970. A near fine book with some spotting to the edge – no inscriptions. In a near fine unclipped wrapper with none of the usual heavy fading to the spine and titles quite clear.
Published to mark Christie’s eightieth birthday and, by counting up both UK and US short-story collections to reach the desired total, was also advertised as her eightieth book. It is the last of her spy novels. At the beginning of the book there is a quote by Jan Smuts, “Leadership, besides being a great creative force, can be diabolical…”
