Description:
Sauk City: Arkham House, 1948. [First edition]. A twice-signed, presentation copy, the year of the book's publication, inscribed, and corrected, with nine corrections in the author's hand. The inscription to his friend Don Carter, reads, "For Don, the night after moving into the new home, sans Katzenjammer, Dec. 4th, 1948. Madam Mad No Whiskey, Dog Gone Madam Mad. Dry Shift." By explanation, CAS had met and been romancing Carolyn Jones Dorman, and moved into her home in Pacific Grove, California. Carolyn had three children from a previous marriage. CAS enjoyed the pleasures of alcohol, sometimes overdoing it, but Carolyn here, was wasn't allowing it. There are nine-handwritten corrections to this copy, in addition to the author's full-signature on the half-title page. Signed copies of this title are scarce, but corrected copies are rare. Some dullness to the cloth, moderately soiled, d.j., with signs of aging, and some darkening to the spine-panel of d.j. Still a very good copy in very good d.j.

Description:
New York,: Coward, McCann & Geoghegan, Inc.,, 1979.. First Edition.. Probably, GHOST STORY is the best of the supernatural novels to be published in the wake of the three books that kicked off a new horror wave in the seventiesthose of course being, ROSEMARY'S BABY, THE EXORCIST, and THE OTHER. . . The writing itself is beautifully tuned and balanced—"Stephen King, DANSE MACABRE"Books which I felt were of particular importance." One of the seminal novels in the field. A fine unread copy in d.j. A very nice copy. *HORROR 100 BEST BOOKS.

Description:
Saddle River: Gerry de la Ree, 1973. First Edition. After purchasing the Samuel Loveman, Clark Ashton Smith collection in 1970-71, Gerry de la Ree published two Clark Ashton Smith books: Grotesques and Fantastiques being the first, Klarkash-ton & Monstro Ligriv, the second. Printed in an edition of 650 copies, 600 unfortunately, were published with stiff-paper covers, only 50 in hardcover. In my opinion the entire 600 copy edition of Grotesques & Fantastiques, should've been published in hardcover, it is that important an addition to the CAS canon. The book contains sixteen previously unpublished poems, twenty-four "grotesques" pieces of original art, plus both covers, and a six-page introduction, mostly reprinting portions of letters from CAS to Loveman. This little volume is a treasure trouve to any Clark Ashton Smith enthusiast. A fine copy in stiff-paper covers.
