Here is a nice opportunity to enjoy the original artwork while saving on the cost of an original dustjacket. See my listings for more -- several different classic PhotoPlay & mystery jackets available. Next up in preparation are the early 1930s printings of several Agatha Christie and Ellery Queen dustjackets. All digitally remastered dustjackets are shipped in a removable, Brodart or Demco archival dustjacket protector, and are ready to place on your book. Due to the scarcity of this dustjacket, I have added an embossed digital watermark to these images to avoid unauthorized duplication. The embossed watermark will NOT appear over the artwork on the front panel. The counter-stamps identifying this as a reproduction WILL appear discretely on the flaps only. About Dustjackets: The dustjacket offered in this auction is digitally scanned from a high quality original. The master is then carefully restored to remove any minor imperfections. This significantly enhances the eye appeal rather than just offering a color photocopy with flaws. Great care is taken to painstakingly retouch these images with emphasis on maintaining the full scope of the original artwork and preserving the texture and granularity of the original. The dustjacket is then printed on an industrial quality machine which far exceeds the image quality possible on any inkjet printer, and produces sharper, crisper images and much better color definition (tone, hue & saturation) with pleasing results. About Title: Just before the air liner landed at Croyden, Madame Giselle, whose shrewdness as a discreet moneylender had gained her a fortune, slumped over dead. There was no question of accident. The weapon lay on the cabin floor -- a small thorn such as is used by South American Indians in a blowgun. Beyond a doubt the murderer was one of the thirteen occupants of the plane. Of all the diabolically ingenious crimes that Agatha Christie has ever conceived, DEATH IN THE AIR ranks among the very cleverest. Dominated by the incomparable Poirot, it is a brilliant mixture of subtle characterization, deft humor and gripping suspense.
