Description: The Witness for the Prosecution and Other Stories Author: CHRISTIE, Agatha Title: The Witness for the Prosecution and Other Stories Publication: New York: Dodd, Mead and Company, (1948) Edition: First Edition Description: Hardcover. Octavo, 272pp. The first American edition of this collection of short stories, issued by Dodd, Mead as part of their "Red Badge Detective" series. There is no UK equivalent of this edition. A cheaply produced volume bound in thin glossy cloth, this example is in very good condition, crisp and tight, with some foxing to the boards, but the interior clean and bright. In the extremely uncommon dust jacket, which has some chips and tears at the extremities, chiefly at the crown, but no notable loss, and general foxing to the verso; about very good. Not a fine copy, but a very uncommon example of this unique Christie volume in dust jacket. The title story was the basis for the 1957 film starring Tyrine Power, Marlene Dietrich, CHarles Laugton, and Elsa Lanchester, and directed by Billy Wilder. Very good / Very good-.
