Description:
Offered here is an important vintage book: Tales of Three Hemispheres, by Dunsany, Lord (Edward Plunkett). Boston: John W. Luce & Company, [1919] Octavo, pp. [1-8] 1-147 [148-152: blank] [note: first and last two leaves are blanks], original red-brown boards with black cloth shelf back, front and spine panels stamped in gold, fore and bottom edges untrimmed. First edition. Printed on laid paper watermarked "D [enclosed within a single rule diamond] / QUEEN LAID. " The U.S. edition preceded the British edition which utilized the sheets of the Luce edition. Bleiler, The Guide to Supernatural Fiction 581. Schlobin, The Literature of Fantasy 906. Tymn, (ed), Fantasy Literature, p. 78. See Barron (ed), Fantasy Literature 3-123. Bleiler (1978), p. 66. Reginald 04629. Anderson I.18.a. A Remarkable well-preserved example of a very scarce edition. This is a remarkable copy - I have close-ups of the spine head and heel for you to look at. The only issues are that there is the cover corners have extremely minor bumps! Page top edges dusty - rest rough cut - deckled edges and the center of the back cover edge has two small puncture-type gouges [as seen]. Several internal pages are uncut - thus book is likley unread. Optional insurance will be added on after the auction depending on the final price. Please wait for an invoice!
We do discount shipping costs for multiple purchases. Shipping Procedures I pride myself on quick shipping. I usually ship on Mondays and on Fridays except on holidays. Once a package is in the Postal Service hands, I loose control over it. Generally for US shipments you can expect delivery within 3 or 4 business days (or 3-9 for media rate). For non-US shipments, once the package leaves the US, even the USPS looses control over it. I can not predict transit times for these packages. They quite often are held up in customs in the receiving country. Please be patient. All payments from countries other than the U.S.A. must be made via paypal or an International Money Order in US Funds, ONLY - no exceptions. Sign up for PayPal; the fast, easy, and secure way to pay online.
