The Ponson Case

Freeman Wills Croft

This dustjacket was used on the 4th impression of the first edition of this title which was issued by Collins in March 1922 in their 2/6d novels series, so it was cheaper than the first edition which probably cost 7/6d.

This is Freeman Wills Crofts' second novel after 'The Cask' (1920) and before 'The Pit-prop Syndicate' (1922).
