Comment (1): Originally (at least in large parts) published in a serialised version; The Murder at the Vicarage 1930 (Chicago Tribune).

Comment (2): The original edition exists with a dust jacket in two different states, one unpriced and one with the price $2.00 printed on the front flap!
                         According to Collecting Christie "it is generally considered that the unpriced version is the first state as either Dodd Mead had not finalized the pricing or
                         it was used on a few advance copies".
