About This Item
Sauk City, WI: Arkham House, 1960. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. 12mo.,168pp. Beautiful First Edition of La Spina's classic werewolf tale, originally published in Weird Tales in the 1920's. This was her only hardcover publication, published by Arkham when she was 80 years old. One of only 1559 copies printed. Square tight and clean throughout with little or no wear save mild bumping to the crown. Equally attractive unclipped jacket, ($3.50), has a touch only of rubbing, so common to this pitch-black jacket and a couple of spot of edge-wear but trivial. Fresh0 and bright with no chipping, creases, toning or tears. Cover by Gary Gore. A gorgeous collectable copy. (Jaffery p. 62-63).
