First edition, first printing of Agatha Christie's, ''The Hound of Death and Other Stories'', a collection of supernatural short stories including ''The Witness for the Prosecution''. London: Odhams Press Limited, 1933, published three years before the Collins Crime Club edition. Deviating from Christie's normal detective stories, ''Hound of Death'' was unique in that it was not available for sale, but rather redeemed from coupons in ''The Passing Show'', a science fiction magazine. Book contains 12 short stories, including ''The Witness for the Prosecution'', adapted many times for stage, film and television. Book measures 5'' x 7.375'', bound in publisher's rose cloth boards. Sunning to spine and light foxing to edges, overall very good condition. Accompanied by facsimile dust jacket.
