A really pristine copy of this classic tale from Lord Dunsany. First published in 1922 in a Limited Vellum quarter-bound copy signed by Dunsany and Sime; 500 numbered copies printed. Presented with test prints of an unpublished story for The Lost Tales Pegana Press series and a proposed Title Page for the Charwoman’s Shadow, also by Pegana Press. In a scarce Dustjacket.
