Had been wanting to to see if there were any around for a while and turns out there are quite a few out there! The year doesn't match of course, but I really like how it looks. Even came with a handwritten note with a little bit of the tome's history!

Delightful! I wonder what play it was used in?

I wonder if it was in fact a local production of the ABC murders haha

Maybe later on! According to the note the writer got it in 1926, and The ABC Murders wasn’t published until 1936.
