Description
DERLETH, August (1909–1971). Someone in the Dark. Sauk City, WI: Arkham House, 1941 [but actually 1967]. 8vo. Original black cloth; original unclipped dust jacket. OFFSET EDITION, or the second printing of which Derleth disingenuously announced in 1967 in an Arkham House bulletin that the publisher had “acquired a small stock of this title” and that they would be sold at $5.00 per copy to patrons. The additional 300 copies were printed in offset by Hunter Publishing Co. in Winston–Salem that was probably authorized by Derleth himself (See Arkham House Companion where Sheldon Jaffery quotes a letter seeming to indicate this authorization). The 1965 reprint is a quarter–inch higher than the originals and are bound with headbands that were not present in the 1941 first editions.
