Agatha Christie - Poirot and The Crime in Cabin 66 - 1936

"Poirot and The Crime in Cabin 66" by Agatha Christie - The Strand magazine Febr. 1936 - 20cmx15cm - condition: original magazine with wrappers bound in paper wrappers, some wear and scuffing to covers, also contains "Archibald and the Masses" by P.G. Wodehouse

In the UK, the story first appeared in The Strand magazine in February 1936. What is interesting here is the change in the title to Poirot and the Crime in Cabin 66 - especially when one considers that there is no reference to a cabin number in the story. One can speculate as to why the name was changed but the fact that Poirot was in a bigger font that Agatha Christie on the magazine's cover implies that the editor of The Strand believed Poirot's name would sell more copies - whether on the cover or in the story's title.
