The 1920s Agatha Christie is a four volume series of omnibuses featuring novels written by Agatha Christie in the 1920s published by HarperCollins. The title page inside each volume also carries a slightly different title: "Agatha Christie Omnibus 1920s Volume X". The series is available in paperback only and first issued between 1995 and 1996.
Each book in the omnibus is followed by a short essay intended as a background note.
A blurb on the back cover of volume one states: "The first book in this new series of Agatha Christie omnibuses begins with her 1920s novels". This left open the possibility that further decades would be covered but in the event HarperCollins did not continue beyond the four 1920s volumes.
