First edition, first printing. Publisher's original brown cloth with decorative borders and titles in black to the upper board and spine. Without the scarce dustwrapper. Lower edge untrimmed. A near very good copy, the binding square and firm with a little rubbing and minor fraying at the extremities. The contents, with some toning and spotting to the margins, heavily so to a couple of pages, are otherwise clean and without inscriptions or stamps.
A highly regarded collection of 15 supernatural tales, 14 of which are expanded by Blackwood from ideas by Wilson. The binding is known in two colours, blue and brown, the casing, contents and dustwrapper (where present) of both are othewise identical. (Bleiler).
