Sauk City, Wisconsin: Arkham House, 1964 Hardcover. Black cloth "Novelex" binding with gold lettering to spine. With original, un-clipped dust jacket. Octavo (5" x 7 ⅜"). 256pp. *** Publisher Arkham House was established in 1939 in Sauk City, Wisconsin, by August Derleth and Donald Wandrei specifically to publish stories by H.P. Lovecraft and others whose works had mostly been printed in the "Weird Tales" magazine and remained unavailable in book form. *** Clark Ashton Smith was a poet and a sculptor, before gaining popularity as a short-story writer for "Weird Tales". This collection contains stories which are more science-fiction than fantasy. The story "Master of the Asteroid" is reminiscent of Jules Verne's "From the Earth to the Moon" (1865), with its explanation of space travel (and space junk), although perhaps with some Lovecraftian horror creeping in at the edges... *** The dust jacket design is by Wisconsin artist, Frank Utpatel. *** Condition: A Fine, fresh copy with no ownership marks or…
