[CHRISTIE, Agatha (1890-1976)] — G. Roy McRAE. The Passing of Mr. Quinn. The book of the film adapted from a short story by Agatha Christie. [London:] for The London Book Co., Ltd. by Wm. Collins Sons & Co., Ltd., [1929].

First edition in the rare dust-jacket. This novel by G. Roy McRae (probably a pseudonym) is based on the screenplay of the film The Passing of Mr Quinn which was an adaptation of Agatha Christie’s short story The Coming of Mr Quin. The preface reads: ‘Readers are requested to note that Mr Quinny of this book is the same person as the Mr Quinn of the film.’

Small octavo. 8 pages of publisher’s advertisements at end. Original dark red cloth, upper cover and spine decorated and lettered in gilt (neat repair to upper hinge, lower hinge starting, a few stains to binding, extremities a trifle rubbed); original pictorial dust-jacket (slightly chipped and frayed at edges [mostly to spine ends and ends of folds], upper flap and panel with clean tear neatly repaired with tape on the reverse).
