About This Item
[New York]: Alfred a Knopf Inc B.E. Trice, 1999. Limited Lettered First Edition. Quarter Leather & Cloth. Fine. A beautiful and scarce Limited "lettered" edition signed by the author on the limitation page and in place of the letter it states "Herb Yellin's Copy." This dedication makes this book the most rare of all the editions: it is in the format of the scarce 26 lettered edition as it is quarter-bound in black leather and red decorative cloth with gold titling. In fine unread condition. With the B.E. Trice imprint on the spine. Enclosed in a black cloth slipcase with "Anne Rice" in gold on the front, also in fine like new condition.
It's hard to imagine that a publisher would reset the font to make this single imprint, but they did and it created a wonderful one-of-a kind edition for the late Herb Yellin who was the beloved founder and publisher of Lord John Press; he passed away in 2014 and this beautiful and scarce book is from his library.

Synopsis
Vittorio The Vampire (1999) is the second novel in Anne Rice's New Tales of the Vampires series. It is the only vampire novel by Rice besides Pandora in which the lead character of her series The Vampire Chronicles, Lestat de Lioncourt, does not appear; although Vittorio references him briefly.
