Weird Tales
Philadelphia: Henry Altemus, 1895. Hard Cover. Fair binding. Item #10473
12mo. 258 pp., frontis, plates. In publisher's decorative cloth-backed boards. The binding is rubbed including closed tears to the cloth along both joints; wear at the head and tail of the spine; binding a trifle soiled; contents clean and despite the damage, the textblock is stable and even the boards are relatively well attached.
A nice gift-book edition of Poe featuring 14 tales including "The Fall of the House of Usher," "The Pit and the Pendulum," "The Tell-Tale Heart," "The Murders in the Rue Morgue," and more. Illustrated with a frontispiece portrait of Poe and 8 other plates. A charming and surprisingly uncommon edition.
