How it works

Register

First edition of this Poe title and one of Arthur Rackham's most highly rated books. In the original black cloth with gilt decorations and titles. With 12 stunning tipped in colour plates and numerous black and white illustrations. The striking endpapers are illustrated by Rackham.

Some wear/rubbing to the cloth, mainly at the extremities. The front endpapers have a closed tear about 7cms. long traversing the hinge, with a 10x7mm. chip over the hinge (see the image). However not readily visible and not a serious flaw. Otherwise the book is very clean, firm, unmarked and without foxing.
