While I've been attending the Agatha Christie Festival in Torquay, I made sure I had a further visit to Greenway. In the library, there are 98 Bantam Books on the shelf. I did not go through and check all the titles but felt the number, 98, was significant enough.
Update to my previous comments: In the list I mention, on my blog, there are 15 USA titles of which 11 are UK duplicates. The USA titles are denoted with '*', duplicates have corresponding UK list number. The Mary Westmacott book is denoted with '**'. The collection includes two plays, two books of poetry and the Christie autobiography.
Hello everyone I am interested in the list that everyone is talking about. I would appreciate it if someone could send it to me at [email protected] Thank you so much I am up to 40 of these and want to get the entire collection at some point.
@wareagle0509 The Mary Westmacott book, Absent in the Spring, is #5 (on my list) and is part of the collection - #78 is The Pale Horse which has Mark Easterbrook as the amateur sleuth.
@wareagle0509 selling them may be a slow process, you will have to decide whether to sell them separately or a job lot. Have a look at eBay to see what is currently for sale and typical prices.
Beautiful_Books. The list
of Bantam Books you present are actually a list of books for sale on
AbeBooks.com, not a correct list of the Agatha Christie Books sold by Bantam
books. Some of the details are incorrect, and the list should not include books
by a Variant Publisher, such as Literary Express. Cross-referencing your Bantam
Books, your list matches mine, there were only 98 books published. It's a shame
that you feel you have to post this thread to try and sell books.
Hello everyone, I also have this wonderful collection; my father got it for me when I was 16. There was an issue with receiving the books that caused him to cancel the order so I don't have a complete set. Alex, if there is a way for you send that list, I would be grateful!
