x, 390, [2] pp. Modern three-quarter blue morocco and cloth, spine ruled and lettered in gilt. Original front cover cloth bound in. First Edition, later impression.
The presence or lack of a catalog and its date are the distinguishing points for the the first four issues. The first issue had no ad for 'Shoulder of Shasta' on p. [392]; second issue has the ad but no catalogue inserted at back (as this copy); third issue has the ad and an undated catalogue and the fourth issue with inserted catalogue dated 1898. As a rebound copy the issue cannot be positively determined, beyond that it is not a first issue. A cornerstone of any library of horror or fantasy.
Condition
Paper with some wear at edges, 11 leaves at the rear have restoration to the upper corner (no loss of text, some smudging and staining within; binding fine.
