Austin Freeman, William Hope Hodgson, T.S. Stribling, Maurice Leblanc, and others. First Impression. Octavo (19.25cm); red cloth, with titles stamped in silver on spine; dustjacket; [6],7-607,[1]pp. Subtle offsetting to endpapers, touch of dust-soil to upper board edges, else a clean, very Near Fine copy.
